Gosh, this is an old thread, but FWIW....

The Aboriginal people here still maintain many traditional beliefs surrounding the dreaming. Each clan/tribe/mob/community has their own beliefs. They maintain their traditional family systems and laws. They uphold women's and men's business, pay back. They don't believe death occurs due to natural causes but that they are the result of evil spirits/spells. When someone dies the community holds 'sorry business' and all of that persons belongings are burned. They are not spoken of again.
They also believe in the Kurdaitcha Man (pronounce kur-die-cha) - akin to the boogey man. He comes out at night.
Our local language here is Arrente (Ah-ren-da) and our kids all learn it at primary school.
