Baiame - The Sky Father

The All-Father creator deity who established law and watches over his creation.

Baiame is revered as the supreme being who created all things and established the laws that govern proper behavior. He dwells in the sky world but remains connected to the land through sacred sites and ceremonies. His teachings form the foundation of moral and spiritual law.

Baiame made all things. He made the animals and the birds, the fish and the insects, the trees and the rivers.

Kamilaroi Elder, Traditional Teaching

Baiame represents the concept of a supreme creator common across southeastern Australian nations.
