About Stone Axe Of Burkamukk

Mary Grant Bruce, a renowned Australian childrens author, dedicated a year to gathering the rich tapestry of Aboriginal stories from Gippsland, a region once vibrant with the early Australians. Today, while the original tribal communities have disappeared, their descendants continue to honor their legacy. This captivating collection features 13 stories from the Gunaikurnai people, as recounted by their elders to Bruce. In her poignant preface, she reflects on the loss of these ancient tribes and their cherished legends, which encapsulate their understanding of the world—its wildlife, natural forces, celestial bodies, and the cycle of life and death. These folktales embody the very essence of a people, and it is vital that we preserve their stories for future generations to appreciate the profound history of Australia before the arrival of colonizers. (From the Preface by Mary Grant Bruce with a little help from annise)

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
