The History of the Northern Territory began over 60,000 years ago when Indigenous Australians settled the region. Makassan traders began trading with the indigenous people of the Northern Territory for trepang from at least the 18th century onwards [1], and possibly 300 years prior to that. Europeans first sighted the coast of the future Territory in the 17th century. British groups made attempts to settle the coastal regions of the Territory from 1824 onwards, but no settlement proved successful until the establishment of Port Darwin in 1869.

  • L'histoire du Territoire du Nord, en Australie a commencé il y a plus de 40 000 ans quand les premiers Aborigènes s'installèrent dans la région. À partir des années 1600, les commerçants de Makassar commencèrent à établir des relations commerciales avec les habitants de la région (les Yolngus) pour troquer contre des couteaux, de la nourriture et du tabac, des holothuries qu'ils allaient revendre aux chinois. L'administration du Territoire du Nord d'abord confiée à l'Australie-Méridionale lui fut retirée et transférée au Commonwealth d’Australie en 1911. (fr)
