澳大利亚原住民口述中的陨石事件记录
Recorded Accounts of Meteoritic Events in the Oral Traditions of Indigenous Australians
摘要：
对自然事件的描述，如火球和陨石撞击，在澳大利亚土著口头传统中发现。对口述传统的研究表明，它们超越了神话和传说的范畴;它们包含了关于自然世界的结构化知识（科学）以及对自然事件和地质灾害的历史记载。这些传统可能会导致西方科学以前未知的陨石和撞击地点的发现。除了有利于陨石学的科学研究，这项研究可以帮助社会科学家更好地了解口头传统的性质和寿命，并进一步支持越来越多的证据表明，口头传统包含自然事件的历史记录。在作者2009年领导的一项研究中，没有发现与陨石有关的口头传统，导致陨石和/或撞击坑的发现。本文对这些初步发现提出了质疑。
英文摘要：
Descriptions of natural events, such as fireballs and meteorite impacts, are found within Indigenous Australian oral traditions. Studies of oral traditions demonstrate that they extend beyond the realm of myth and legend; they contain structured knowledge about the natural world (science) as well as historic accounts of natural events and geo-hazards. These traditions could lead to the discovery of meteorites and impact sites previously unknown to Western science. In addition to benefiting the scientific study of meteoritics, this study can help social scientists better understand the nature and longevity of oral traditions and further support the growing body of evidence that oral traditions contain historical accounts of natural events. In a previous study led by the author in 2009, no meteorite-related oral traditions were identified that led to the discovery of meteorites and/or impact craters. This paper challenges those initial findings.
