 Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Culture of Australia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
The original culture of Australia can only be surmised: cultural patterns among the remote descendants of the first Australians cannot be assumed to be unchanged after 53,000 years of human habitation of the continent.
Others seize eagerly on each small point of difference, and brandish relatively small parts of the Australian cultural experience (such as the poetry of Henry Lawson, Australian Rules football, or the pie floater) as if these were sufficient to demonstrate that a new and vital culture has emerged in the two centuries since European settlement.
Finally, there is what might be termed a culturally agnostic view, which holds that endlessly debating Australian culture is futile and pointless, and that the important thing is to simply get on with living and creating it.

The Iranian theory, on the other hand, argues that the material culture of the Cimmerians in Asia Minor is indistinguishable from that of the contemporary Scythian s; furthermore, Assyrian Gimirri and Persian Saka are used synonymously in ancient Near eastern sources, most notably on the famous Behistun inscription.
However, the ouster of the Catacomb culture is carbon-dated to the 2nd millennium BC, several hundred years before the Scythians are recorded as having appeared in Asia ; the conflicting timeframes are difficult to reconcile.
It is, however, conceivable that a small-scale (in terms of population) 8th century " Thraco-Cimmerian " migration triggered cultural changes that contributed to the transformation of the Urnfield culture into the Hallstatt culture culture, ushering in the European Iron Age.

It refers to 8th to 7th century BC cultures that intruded into Eastern Central Europe from the area north of the Black Sea.
The latter are known from historical records to have invaded Anatolia around this period, while the Thracians are mentioned as far back as the Iliad and Odyssey, where they participate in the Trojan War; Thracologists and archaeologists generally trace back the Thracians to the Balkan/Carpatho-Danubian Chalcolithic period (Hoddinott et al.).
It is sometimes assumed that the migration of the Cimmerians was triggered by an Iranian expansion, from the area of the former Srubna culture, into the steppes of what is now the Ukraine.

 Scythians
They probably did live in the area north of the Black Sea, but attempts to define their original homeland more precisely by archaeological means, or even to fix the date of their expulsion from their country by the Scythians, have not so far been completely successful.
One theory identifies them with what is known to archaeologists as the “Catacomb” culture.
Some authorities identify them with “Thraco-Cimmerian” remains of the 8th–7th century BC found in the southwestern Ukraine and in central Europe; these may perhaps be looked upon as traces of the western branch of the Cimmerians, who, under fresh Scythian pressure, eventually invaded the Hungarian plain and survived there until about 500 BC.
