Synopsis
Addresses the term Terra Nullius (Latin term meaning, 'land belonging to no one') the term used by the British Government to justify the dispossession of Aboriginal people. In the eyes of the British, Indigenous people were merely roaming the land and had no agriculture, social or religious structure. This was of course a falsehood and can be dissolved by looking at the way the land has been mapped by Aboriginal people over the last 120,000 years or more.
