Seed cake?
Is this the same as seed cake?--Shantavira|feed me 11:20, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Merge proposal
The article title Bush bread is a reversal of the article title Seed cake. "Bush bread" has the lead "Bush bread, or seedcakes" and "Seed cake" has the lead "Seed cake or bush bread". As far as I can see the seed cake article needs to be merged into "Bush bread". Otr500 (talk) 14:44, 27 November 2010 (UTC)

Query.
I've worked with many human remains recovered at archeological digs over the years and one thing of note is wear on teeth when eating milled grains. This is notably not evidence in Australian aboriginal remains. Meaning that they either had modern steel milling technology or did not mill grains. I would love to know more about the mortar and pestle depicted and its origins and how they're dating it. If anyone has any information, please post it here. --121.210.33.50 (talk) 16:24, 29 October 2019 (UTC)


 * Came here to ask the same question. I've studied and worked at several hundred archaeological sites across Australia and I've never recovered or seen milling technology - I know oral tradition is accepted as "proof" in this case but there's no evidence for the claim - I was hoping someone had found some actual evidence of these claims because we've been teaching this rote in schools for years even though I've yet to see a single millstone recovered from a dig here. I feel like I am lying to students by telling them all this stuff that there's no evidence for and was kind of hoping for some moral absolution that someone found ... well, anything! So that's two archaeologists with hands on experience who are at a loss, but all these "authors" out there seem adamant, they're usually art graduates though so it leaves me wondering if this is speculative fiction or archaeology they're writing about. 124.190.192.47 (talk) 07:45, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
