The traditional didgeridoo that
we call yiggi yiggi can only be found in the top half of Australia. Didgeridoos are a sacred mans instrument and indigenous women are not allowed to play it. Didgeridoos are created by termites hollowing out the branches or trunk of a tree. This didgeridoo is made from the bloodwood tree. One of the benefits of playing the didgeridoo is that if you play regularly you will sleep better and stop you from snoring.
The paintings added to the didgeridoos tell the story of the
aboriginal rainforest people of Far North Queensland.
The boomerang was used by many aboriginal clans throughout Australia. It was used to hunt food but was
also used for recreation. These boomerangs have been decorated with the story of the rainforest people. Most of the boomerangs made by the Rainforest aboriginals were
not designed to return. The thick foliage prevented the boomerang from returning anyway.
