The rock is supposed to look like a man who has been speared, laying down to rest. The nearby location of water pools and rock art point to a generally importanct site for Indigenous peoples of the area

How does aboriginal culture influence Australian Culture?

they don't. Unlike the situation between the Maury and the pakiha ( white person) in NZ I would say that aside from having seen the occasional bit of aboriginal art and a few well meaning articles in newspapers and on television 99% the Average Australians are blissfully unaware of any thing that has to do with aboriginal culture aside from a seemingly endless array of racist joke's. I agree. Having lived in Australia I can say that Aboriginal culture influences Australian culture very little. Kids in Australia are thought about Aboriginal culture throughout their schooling, which means they are somewhat well educated on the topic of Aboriginal culture. However, aside from this education, influences of Aboriginal culture can not really be seen in everyday Australian life.
