Aboriginal people revere certain sites around Australia as sacred. Uluru (Ayers Rock) is one of them. It is a place of mysticism, a place from where much of their Aboriginal Dreaming emanates. It is a place where, they believe, the bodies of their ancestors hardened into rock. It was there at the Alcheringa (the Dawn of Time) and will be there until the very end. It holds peace and power. For the central Australian Aborigines, the Dreamtime stories come out of Uluru. They kindly ask that you don't climb the rock because you must walk over the dreamtime exit path.

The Aborigines have known about Uluru for thousands of years. Explorer William Gosse, of the South Australian Survey Department, is believed to have been the first European explorer to see Ayers Rock. Gosse discovered the rock (now known by its native name of Uluru) by accident during an expedition through Australia's interior. The need to find water for his camels forced him to take a more southerly course than he had originally planned. On 18 July 1873 he sighted Ayers Rock, recording that, "This rock is certainly the most wonderful natural feature I have ever seen". Known to the indigenous Australians as Uluru, the rock was named Ayers Rock after Sir Henry Ayers, Premier of South Australia at the time.
