Summary: They used to gather mutton fish and trade with Chinese people...it would really be a family gather, where men would be diving, gathering mutton fish, bringing it to share and women and kids would be lighting the fires. So our people started trading way back then.' Mutton Fish is the story of the Aboriginal people of the south coast of New South Wales. Mutton fish, or abalone, is a subsistence food - easy to find and harvest, extremely rich in energy and accessible for as long as the beaches are freely open to all. |
