I just thought of something right..

Is it true that most indigenous people's around the world have red yellow and black as their colours?

It's probably the most common and easy colors to find in nature

Well maybe it's because the most they've achieved until reunited with whites was looking into the fire after a long day of hunting?

Im not being racist

Just sayin, the most entertaining thing for aboriginals might have been looking into a fire and the coals at night

Everyone likes looking at a fire, and in the coals

I know that the aboriginies in Australia only used Red, Yellow, Brown, White, and Black in their paintings because they could find those easily in nature

Because its in us, fire has brought us warmth for thousands of years

That too but

Yeah... maybe that too. Not discovering paints like the rest of us...

So pretty much, their cultural colours are an indication of technology level

Obtaining colors to paint, that was even a problem during the renaissance.

Really? Wow

Small things I never knew about lol

Today you just go to the Arts & Crafts store and buy a full palette.

Creating the colors was part of their craft.

But then it shouldn't be racist to make a statement about aboriginals and other indigenous cultures world wide

The statement being they weren't as evolved as us

And obviously because we defeated them with technology.

What's the point you are trying to make?

@HungBunny 'Is it true that most indigenous people's around the world have red yellow and black as their colours?' that is not the case that i'm aware of, red yes, black maybe (charcoal and embers of ash) yellow? sure. however prior to the colonization of the americas (or possibly before) the mayans had blues, greens, and oranges due to abundant flowers and different kinds of bugs that secreted specific pigments when squished or ground up with various other items.

not to mention that the colors of many native american tribes in the united states regions having various colors that they used for different things

Yeah? There's bugs and shit here. Mayans built stuff though man. They conceived the idea to build. They built temples

Aboriginals didn't build, they didn't invent the bow

The bow is such an important element of evolution across all races and culture

so did many cultures worldwide, as far as we know 5-6 of the seven continents have advanced structures upon them, i'm unaware of australia specifically tbh, so can't comment there

Again, they built settlements and had bows

Aboriginals didn't have anything like this besides a spear

We can agree that a spear comes first then the bow

true, however if you'll permit me to speak slightly in context but in another case it may clarify some points

Their colours are red yellow and black because they drew some much wonder from looking into fire

1. europe and asia(including india for the most part) developed significantly faster technologically than all other locations in the world.

2. it stands to reason that the majority of other locations would be just as far along evolutionarily (technology wise) than another culture as well

it's potentially possible that (lets face it) australia has many of the worlds most deadly creatures, a lot of the leaders in innovation may have died long before they had a chance to blossom into the minds needed to advance culturally

Yeah that's true too

but there's plenty of other factors involved as well, my presumption is but one of many

Im not saying it's fair for them not to have evolved like us

It's a harsher environment

i wouldn't dream of putting that opinion upon you, i'm just making the assertion that it could be environmental and no fault of their own.

And we have to understand it can take generations for other cultures to catch up with ours

Well it isn't anyone else fault, it is their fault but the environment is also harsher
