Relevancy of first history paragraph

[edit]

“ Coastal Aboriginal people who lived around Sydney lived off the rich plant, bird, animal and marine life surrounding the harbour for tens of thousands of years. Within the City of Sydney local government area, the traditional owners are the Cadigal and Wangal bands of the Eora. Their ancient lifestyle was catastrophically upturned when the site was chosen by Governor Phillip for an English penal settlement in 1788.”

This does not relate to the Cenotaph and the language in it seems to be editorialised. Is there any reason for this to be included? trainsandtech (talk) 08:40, 6 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
