General notes:

Event: The Aboriginal history of DocklandsSpeaker: Dr Gary PreslandVenue: Library at the DockBlurb: For thousands of years before European settlement, people of the Kulin nation met regularly around the area that is now the Central City of Melbourne, to engage in social and ritual activities. The area of Docklands was the place where Watha wurrung people from the Geelong region gathered.Dr Gary Presland will discuss these meetings, the nature of the social connections between groups and how the environment of the docklands supported the gathering of such large numbers.Image: Derrimut of Port Phillip, State Library of NSW DG 371
