             The history of the Grampians, Victoria’s oldest National Park, has undergone drastic revision. New carbon datings have pushed back estimates of the time-span of human occupation in this area by a full 16,000 years, to over 22,000 years. The Gariwerd Dreaming Theatre, at the Brambuk Aboriginal Cultural Centre, brings science and the mythology of the region together in a superb multimedia presentation.
