    No pictures but a thought, both Aboriginals and Scots have a similar social structure I think. Both use a "clan" system to link individuals families to create a close knit bond from within. Mutual sharing of resources, protection, feasts, cultural events and caring for each other. This also extends to the greater "tribe" and in turn "nation".
    It was easy for both peoples to integrate with each other, and if I may modestly say the Scots were one of the very few people hardy enough to endure, thrive in the early colonial times.
    Beside who can resist a people who play such a marvelous musical instrument. (the drum, well what did you expect )
