At the time of colonial settlement in Australia, the Aborigines viewed the land in the same way as they do now, which is as the source of their spiritual life. The land is the very heart and soul of aboriginal culture and tradition. To be separated from one's homeland is, for the indigenous Australians, like being cut off from one's very life source, and they suffered deeply when their land was taken from them following European settlement.

How did Aborigines view the land?
Aborigines have a very close connection with their homeland which is part of their very identity. Their soul was infused with the earth, and to be dispossessed of their tribal lands meant they lost that connection and therefore their very spiritual identity.
Were the Europeans that arrived in Australia after 1788 invaders or settlers?
They were both. From the Aborigines' point of view, they were invaders, taking aboriginal lands and pillaging their hunting grounds. The definition of a 'settler' is one who settles an area, clearing the land and building residences and farms. For this reason, the Europeans that came to Australia were settlers.
How did the Aboriginal person view the environment and land?
They viewed the land as their mother whom they believed they came from. The Aboriginals also believed that they belonged to the land and not that the land belonged to them.
What was William Hobson's view of the treaty?
I think hisview on t he treaty was that he didn't want to same to happen to the Maori as what happen to the Aborigines. So he decided to make come up with a treaty so the Maori could have rights and save some of there land. I think he had this view because he realised that what they were doing to the aborigines was unfair and sad as heaps of families got split up and destroyed because of them (Europeans). But this view is not sure as i am not William Hobson myself but that's what i have thought it is from gathering information about it.

Why did the Europeans and Aborigines fight?
One of the main reasons was miscommunication. The Aborigines did not understand the European concept of ownership, and believed that the easy prey of sheep and cattle were there for everyone to share. Naturally, the Europeans had quite a different view on this, and often organised revenge attacks on aboriginal tribes for slaughtering their livestock. The Europeans also drove Aborigines away from their tribal lands. The land was very important to the Aborigines: where they were born was where they would die. It was part of their very soul. The Europeans invaded their land, took over and drove them away, deeper into the dry desert areas. Europeans took over watering holes, and many a skirmish was had over who was going to use the waterhole. Cultural differences caused another set of problems. An example was when Captain Arthur Phillip went to greet a local aboriginal chief, putting out his hand confidently to shake hands. this was perceived by the Aborigines as an act of aggression, and Phillip was speared in the shoulder.
