Is that where you buried the bodies?

@FloorGenAdm 'Austrian' Aboriginal burial practices vary greatly across the different regions of Australia. Some groups do indeed have the tradition of placing the deceased up in trees or on platforms above the ground. This is more common in central Australia, including the Arunta, Adelaide, and Gulf of Carpentaria tribes.
Among these groups, the bodies of adults and children are generally treated differently. The corpse of an adult is often placed on a platform of boughs in a tree, sometimes bound or sewn up in a deerskin, and left to decompose. The bones are then later collected and buried, deposited in a cave or rock crevice, or placed in a hollow log.
The body of a deceased child, on the other hand, is often placed directly into a tree. In some tribes, the bodies of the elderly are also treated similarly to children and placed directly in trees.
In other regions, such as New South Wales, Victoria, and Queensland, the prevalent method of disposal is burial, although other procedures, such as cremation, exposure on a platform, and cannibalism, also exist.
Burial trees and scaffolds are also common among some Native American groups, the Balinese, and the Naga people of India.
