WHAT IS A NULLA NULLA (Aboriginal traditional war club)
A nulla nulla (Aboriginal war club), also called a waddy or boondi, is a traditional Australian Aboriginal fighting club.

WHAT IS A BULLROARER
An ancient Aboriginal instrument used to communicate by swinging the bullroarer in rapid circles from a length of twine. The width of the paddle like bullroarer and its thin wooden design produce a type of haunting/warping sound at low frequencies that can be heard of vast distances, particularly if used on top of a hill. You must twirl the twine/string so it will unwind when swung in a circle by your side or over your head.

MAKER AND ARTIST
These traditional artifacts have been handmade and hand painted by prominent Aboriginal artist and artifact maker Josh Skeen. Josh is a fourth-generation Aboriginal. He is the son of world-famous boomerang maker 87-year-old tribal elder Joe Skeen Senior, and works alongside his father at their farm every day in Brisbane, Australia. This message stick and set of clapsticks has been painted in traditional Aboriginal track designs by Josh Skeen.
