It was where they began populating the earth.


So, according to Aboriginal beliefs, something landed in the Outback a very long time ago and brought with it life as we know it. According to Bill Chalker, connections with aliens still exist in rituals and legends passed along in some tribes to this day. Early settlers even reported strange phenomena around the continent.
Then, of course, there's the question about Uluru itself. It, along with three other nearby formations, resemble triangles. Some ufologists and enthusiasts say these do not resemble natural structures. In satellite images of the anomalies, the triangles appear to have similar characteristics and are even oriented in the same direction.
Uluru itself is believed by Aborigines to have an energy source, Tjukurpa, beneath it. There have been a few times in history the rock has changed color.
Is this proof of the past visitation of extra-terrestrials? The question is still unanswered and hotly debated. Many natural structures almost appear to be man-made. And as for the native tales passed down, there could be more symbolism than fact to the words. Looking up into the vastness of the night sky, it's easy to imagine our early ancestors forming fantastic tales from the great unknown.

More importantly, does this theory mean that I can claim to be Australian through ancestral lineage?

UFO sightings have a long history in the Aussie outback. Especially across the Nullarbor desert along the road from South Australia to Western Australia. I think the most famous one happened in the 60's or 70's and was made into a movie - albiet a bad movie!
Twice I've seen lights in the sky I can't explain, and both times I was with someone else at the time so know it wasn't a case of an over active imagination. I wonder though if Australia specifically has more UFO's hovering around or if it's a case of a country with very little populace in comparison to her size? In all honesty, there isn't too much to do in the outback except star gaze. Perhaps more people are looking into the heavens there than they would be in urban or city surrounds.
Best Wishes,
