KANES
aim is to help guests understand the special
stone age culture currently being lovingly preserved despite the
pressures from a powerful modern densely populated society.
We

driven by modern religion, pride, competition, new technology and
opportunity we learn to understand the forces and effects facing native
cultures world-wide.

are now used for modern roads and walking tracks.
