In the Western Australian Outback, archaeologists have identified a cache of cinnabar-dotted quartz crystals buried in a geometric pattern. The site, which dates back 4,000 years, aligns perfectly with the Orion constellation during the southern winter solstice.
This discovery provides a tangible link between modern Aboriginal Songlines and ancient 'Star-Falling' festivals. Researchers argue that the crystals were used in light-reflection rituals meant to represent stars descending to earth to bless the hunting grounds for the coming season.
