"The Aboriginal Inhabitants Native Tombs and Means of Disposing of their Dead" is a notable lithograph by George French Angas, featured in his work 'South Australia Illustrated,' which was published in the mid-19th century. Angas, an English painter and naturalist, traveled to Australia and New Zealand, documenting the landscapes, flora, fauna, and indigenous peoples he encountered. His illustrations are significant historical records of the cultural practices and daily life of Aboriginal Australians during the early period of European settlement.

This particular lithograph is an important visual account of the funerary customs and mortuary practices of the Aboriginal people of South Australia. Angas's attention to detail provides valuable ethnographic information, capturing the methods of burial and the construction of native tombs at a time when such traditions were largely undocumented by European observers. The artwork serves as a poignant reminder of the rich cultural heritage of the Aboriginal communities and their deep spiritual connection to the land.

'South Australia Illustrated' is a collection of Angas's works that has been praised for its artistic merit and anthropological significance. The publication has contributed to a broader understanding of Aboriginal cultures and has been used as a reference in historical and anthropological studies. The lithograph "The Aboriginal Inhabitants Native Tombs and Means of Disposing of their Dead" stands out as a particularly informative piece within this collection, offering insights into the reverence for the deceased and the ceremonial practices that were integral to Aboriginal societies in the 19th century.
