But his belly showed he’d had a last meal of crayfish and possum, and he was buried with evident tenderness.Īfter researchers learned Kaakutja had lived before the use of metal in his region of Australia, they had to figure out what might have killed him. His skull bore two healed injuries, one of them possibly made by a sharp-edged weapon. The evidence suggested Kaakutja-who died in his late 20s or early 30s-was familiar with violence. Brought in to help tell the man’s story, Westaway initially suspected Kaakutja had died at the hands of the Native Police, militia-like forces organized by British officials and responsible for many Aboriginal deaths. The Baakantji named the dead man Kaakutja, which means “older brother.” Kaakutja had a long wound on his face from a sharp-edged weapon, some of his ribs were broken, and a circle of bone had been hacked off his upper arm. The skull was discovered in 2014 by William Bates, a member of the local Aboriginal people, the Baakantji. “I don't know if it was a continent-wide phenomenon,” says Michael Westaway, co-author of the new study and a biological anthropologist at Australia’s Griffith University, “but we do see evidence in this part of that … supports intertribal conflict.” That skeleton, dated to around 1600 B.C., bears multiple spear wounds, possibly inflicted as a ritual punishment. Only one other skeleton predating Australia’s colonization is known to show signs of lethal injuries meted out by other humans. The study’s authors argue the man was a victim of deliberate violence, a theory that implies that at least some Aboriginal peoples battled each other before contact with Europeans and brings new insight into pre-colonization tribal relationships in Australia, a subject known mostly from less tangible historical accounts. And a new study in the current issue of Antiquity suggests the unique wounds likely came from a homegrown weapon: the boomerang. Lab tests showed the man died in the 1200s-600 years before European settlers and their metal tools reached the area. When an Aboriginal man’s skeleton was found beside an Australian river bank two years ago, the long gash in his skull indicated he’d been slashed to death by a sword or cutlass, probably during the turbulent years when Europeans were spreading across the continent.
