Warrang
Homeground Festival 17/2
Sydney Opera House
erbaut auf
Gadigal Land
always was, always will be, aboriginal land.
The site of the Opera House used to be a small island connected to the land at low tide. It had two large middens. Aboriginal people used it as a place for ceremony and feasting.
Interestingly, today it is again a place of ceremony (performances) and feasting (food court) and the Opera House looks like the shells you would find in a midden.
The Aboriginal name of the site is warrang, meaning ‘scars in the back’, because it used to be the place where young boys were initiated, part of which involved scarring their backs
