Best Answer

Aboriginal people were able to find supplies of food in places where white explorers died of starvation. To do this they needed very detailed knowledge of the land. They also needed suitable weapons, tools and techniques. The Aboriginal used many things to make their weapons and tools with such as: Fishing Hooks, Lines, Spears, Spear Throwers, Boomerangs, Clubs, Knives, Axes, Adzes, Chisels, Digging Sticks, Carrying Bags, Food Containers, Canoes and Shelters. All of these tools and weapons were made out of wool, stone, plant and animal materials.

Traditional Aborigines produced their food very differently from Europeans. They did not cultivate crops or domesticate animals, instead they obtained food by hunting and gathering.

Their food preparation techniques differed not only from European methods but also from groups to groups. A popular style of 'oven' was made by lining a pit with hot stones.
