The Aboriginal people believe Uluru is sacred.
No-one lives at Uluru itself. At the nearby Yulara resort, the 2006 census indicated a population of 1606.
The Australian Aboriginal people did not have "gods". Uluru was created by the Spirit people of the Dreaming, the aboriginal time of creation.
Uluru, or Ayers Rock, is sacred to the indigenous people of the country and continent of Australia.
"Because it's there"
Uluru is the traditional, indigenous name. It was given the name of Ayers Rock by explorer William Christie Gosse, after the-then Premier or South Australia, Sir Henry Ayers. Its original name is Uluru, and because Uluru has been returned to its traditional owners for management, the name of Uluru has been restored as its official name.
The Aborginal Australians seen as the traditional owners of Uluru are Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara of central Australia's Anangu people.
The Anangu people of central Australia are the indigenous owners of Uluru, also known as Ayers Rock.
Uluru is ancient. It is as old as the continent of Australia itself. Geologists have not been able to determine its age. Uluru is considered a sacred site by the Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara people, and ancient paintings can be seen in caves, cliff overhangs and other surfaces of Uluru.
Uluru is not the name of a desert. It is the name given by the indigenous people of Australia to the large monolith in central Australia. The word 'Uluru' is said to mean 'great pebble', and it refers to a single land feature, not an entire desert. There is no desert anywhere called Uluru.
Uluru's original inhabitants are the Anangu people of central Australia. They are now regarded as the indigenous owners of Uluru, and they look after it, assisted by Australian government laws which govern National Parks.
