RECOGNITION STATEMENT. “If we follow Xxxxxx’s law and look after the country, then the country will look after us. …If the Wotjobaluk continue to follow Bunjil then things will go on as the old people would want.”1 Uncle Xxxx Xxxxxxx, 2003 We, the Wotjobaluk, Jaadwa, Jadawadjali, Wergaia and Jupagulk Peoples have lived in the Wimmera since the beginning of time. Bunjil (Dadjugwil) together with our other creation beings and ancestors, made the land, waterholes, animals and plants. Bunjil entrusted the Xxxx-Xxxx Xxxx brothers with our law. We were given the responsibility to look after our Country and culture, to keep it healthy and strong. Our ancestors cared for the lands and waters of our Country, following Xxxxxx’s law and practicing and protecting traditional lore and culture. Our creation story of Xxxxxxxx, the giant emu, lies at the heart of our connection to Country. Our ancestors moved across Country from season to season following the availability of food and attending large gatherings for ceremony and trade. “Country heals us and connects us to our dreaming stories, to our ancestors and spirits. It is the foundation of our future. If our Country is treated with respect and care, then it will continue to sustain us and provide for us.”2 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx (renamed by Europeans as the Wimmera River) is our life blood. For our ancestors, it was an essential source of water and provided abundant food. Plants were used for food, medicine and for trade and, together with birds, fish and mammals, sustained us on our Country. Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx continues to represent for us a spiritual and cultural connection to our ancestors and the descendants of eight identified ancestors: Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Captain Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx Country, in this way, remains central to our health and wellbeing. While some of our families have moved off Country, they still maintain a strong cultural connection to it, cherishing and nurturing all aspects of land, water and heritage to preserve the strength and resilience of our Traditional Owner community. We have always used fire as a tool to manage and look after Country. We have used it as a means of hunting, for gathering edible tubers and roots, and to help with ease of movement through densely vegetated areas.
