AO THROWBACK - One of the most intriguing legends of the Australian Aboriginal people is that of the Wandjina sky beings, whose depiction in art resembles extra-terrestrial beings. https://www.ancient-origins.net/human-origins-folklore/mysterious-aboriginal-rock-art-wandjinas-extraterrestrial-or-not-00701

https://youtube.com/watch?v=Bprrje3tv04&si=afC3IMs9Kpw_kzog Klidge is one of the #FateGO Youtubers that I follow and this is a reasonably balanced look at the addition of #Wandjina to #FGO that at least acknowledges the validity of concerns of cultural insensitivity. Klidge clearly did his research into incidents in Perth for this one.

Noting that #FGO has never been good for cross-cultural representation (I strongly suspect that Sitonai was terrible from the perspective of the Ainu and Ganesha ditto for Hindu representation with Arjuna and Karna not much better and the less said about Parvati and Kama the better), the introduction of #Wandjina to #FGOJP is a bit of worry. She looks like a strong unit but the imagery is quite appropriative IMO
