Uluru is the native name for Ayers Rock in Australia. Dreamtime is the name for a form of shamanic practice common in aboriginal Australian and American tribes. It usually involves ingesting various halucenogenic plant extracts or cocktails and is the process by which tribal elders would commune with the ancestral spirits and guardians of nature to procure their favour, wisdom and counsel. Other accounts of Dreamtime suggest something much more ancient and arcane; a time in which nothing but pure energy existed, waiting to be born into a physical form; the time before creation. As for WHERE Uluru was in the dreamtime, I have read that he lay dormant "...in the space between spaces...". I cannot find a text that says where exactly that was, but since nothing existed I would say its location is irrelevant!
It is not known when the indigenous people of Australia first sighted Uluru (Ayers Rock). they have, of course, known about this natural feature for thousands of years. The monolith (or inselberg) is considered a sacred site by the Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara people, and ancient paintings can be seen in caves, cliff overhangs and other surfaces of Uluru. For this reason, it is clear that the first people to discover Uluru were the Australian indigenous people.
The first European explorer to sight Uluru was William Gosse, of the South Australian Survey Department. Gosse discovered the unusual natural feature by accident during an expedition through Australia's interior. The need to find water for his camels forced him to take a more southerly course than he had originally planned. On 18 July 1873 he sighted Ayers Rock, recording that, "This rock is certainly the most wonderful natural feature I have ever seen".
Gosse named the feature Ayers Rock in honour of the then-Chief Secretary of South Australia, or Premier, Sir Henry Ayers.
Uluru is pronounced Oo - la - roo. The emphasis is on the first and last syllables.
