Overview[]

Anangu[]

"Anangu" is an umbrella term that describes several Australian Aboriginal groups who speak Western Desert languages; the term is most prominently used by the Pitjantjatjara and the Yankunytjatjara. The Western Desert languages have been described as covering more of Australia's area than any other indigenous language.

Uluru and Kata Tjuta are sacred sites in the Anangu belief system, with eleven songlines passing through or near them. In 1979, the indigenous Central Land Council began a legal battle to lay claim to the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park; in 1985, the resulting settlement plan was implemented, which granted the Anangu a majority of the park's Board of Management but still allowed tourists to visit the park.

Tjilpi[]

Although the names of historical Anangu leaders have been lost to time, it is plausible that many of them would be known as 'tjilpi.' A term meaning "old man" or "uncle," tjilpi is an honorific title that is used to this day.

Some recent examples of people given the title 'tjilpi' include Bob Randall (1934 - 2015), a musician and community leader who founded several organizations in Darwin, and Kunmanara Kankapankatja (1930 - 2012), an artist who fought to conserve sacred sites and natural resources in Anangu land.

Dawn of Man[]

"Greetings, Tjilpi, great elder of the Anangu people! The Anangu - an umbrella group that includes the Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara - have lived in the Western Desert of Australia for thousands of years. Your people were the first to venerate Uluru and the Kata Tjuta mountains, and the first to recognize the songlines that connect those sites to the rest of the continent around them. When the British arrived on Australia, your populace's way of life was significantly disrupted, as settlers and ranchers intruded upon much of your land. However, your people have begun to bounce back in recent decades, as the aboriginal Land Councils have granted your people legal rights of their ancestral lands.

Great Tjilpi, your people may be on the upswing, but they long for the great days of old. Can you restore the glory of the Anangu, and lead your people to spread all across - or even beyond - the deserts of Australia? Can you build a civilization that will stand the test of time?"

Introduction: "I don't believe I've seen you here before. Today, your travels have brought you to the land of the Anangu."

Defeat: "You have defiled the sacred paths we all must walk... I can at least take comfort in the knowledge that I will not witness the gods' revenge."
