The Aboriginal people began to lose control of there land.

                            1. Because the Aboriginals refused to move away from there traditional land they started to rely more and more on the British for food and support.
                            2. Land
                              1. As the Europeans cleared more and more land the Aboriginals had less and less food sources.

It was reported that he was invincible but in 1802 he was shot and the British sent his head to England. The Brittish thought that his death would have ended the Aboriginal resistance but they still continued. Because of the Aboriginal attacks, the British slaughtered thousands of Aboriginal people.
                                1. Myall Creek Massacre: In Northern NSW 1838, 2 European settles were killed be Aborigines. 12 local stockmen decided to take revenge, so they tock 28 people from the local Aboriginal camp, including children. Then they brutally beat the people to death while tied up and then burnt the bodies. In the end most of the men got hung of merder and now that sight is a great sadness for Aboriginal people.
                                  1. By around the 1790s the Aborigines began to use guerrilla tastics against thr settlers. They attacked homes, crops and animals with violence and fire. This resulted to conflict on both sides
