ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Aboriginal rock

Okay kiddo, have you ever seen a big rock that's kind of flat and has drawings on it? Yup, that's what we call aboriginal rock! These rocks are really special because they were made a long, long time ago by the first people who lived in certain parts of the world, like Australia or North America.

Now, when I say "drawings," I don't mean like a picture of a horse or a flower. These are special drawings that tell stories or show important events that happened in the past. The people who made these drawings were called "aboriginal people" because they were the first people to live in those places.

Aboriginal rock is really amazing because it shows how creative and smart these people were. They didn't have paper or pens or even paint like we do today, so they had to use things like rocks, stones, and charcoal (which is like a black kind of pencil) to make their drawings. And even though these drawings are really old, they still look really cool and colorful today!

So, to sum it up, aboriginal rock is a special kind of rock with drawings made by the first people who lived in certain parts of the world. These drawings tell stories and show important events, and they are a really impressive example of how clever and creative people can be!
