we got dis question 2. u basically gota compare both abo n non-abo beliefs n practices.

aboriginals have: - spiritual connection to the land whereas non-abos believe the land is there to be bought n sold
- abo tribal law passed by word of mouth wheres non-abo law is universal, written n systematised
- abo hav sacred stories, painting n dance wheres non-abo hav sacred texts n writings e.g.bible n koran
- abo hav sacred sites whereas non-abo have man-made sites such as the Church
