The online project http://historyofaboriginalsydney.edu.au, now based at the University of Western Sydney, takes the educational and digital initiatives of today in a new direction. Dividing the city of Sydney into six geographic regions, we created a site based on the history of the Aborigines of Sydney since the invasion by the English colonisers. The site incorporates new forms of tagging, time line and digital mapping to present multiple pathways of information in textual, video and photographic form. After seven years of investigation, we can offer our website balanced between unearthing lost knowledge and discovering new sources of information. We have incorporated all these into the site while exploring the potential for digital mapping and animation for purposes both of education and research. After carefully consulting professional Aboriginal educational groups, we believe that we have created a digital Indigenous history of Sydney, while at the same time returning to the Aborigines the history of which they have been deprived for so long.This article is based on our previous papers in English, both cited on the project website (READ, P. SUKOVIC, S. & READ, P. A History of Aboriginal Sydney ... digitally delivering the past to the present. Information Online 2011: ALIA 15th Conference & Exhibition, 1-3 February 2011 Sydney Convention & Exhibition Centre.) The article presents our work to date to our colleagues in Spanish speaking countries. Unfortunately, the web site no longer exist in its original form. It is possible to access the website, without some of the links, at https://web.archive.org/web/20170216000824/http://historyofaboriginalsydney.edu.au
