The Australian deserts are important to the original inhabitants of Australia, the Aboriginals. The desert contains dreamtime stories (stories of creation) which are very important to the Aboriginals and it was also their home for the bulk of the population. Today, modern Australia neglects the deserts and its cultural status however work is going into place to conserve landmarks and cultural aspects of the desert.
