Indigenous meanings of Australian town names
Indigenous meanings of Australian town names - The bustle of everyday life can often distract you from these cultural origins that we literally live in, like catching the train from "permanent place" (Killara) to "eel waters" (Parramatta) ; watching the eccentric Ladies from "reedy swamp" (Toorak) on that housewives program or driving the long journey to "the place of many crows" (Wagga Wagga) to Grandma's for Christmas.
