Description of the Sydney Area in 1790

Aboriginal production had been dramatically disturbed by the British presence. The arrival of a thousand hungry mouths, followed by hundreds more put unprecedented pressure on local food resources.

So, what would the Daruk people have thought of all this ? To them such large-scale destruction of sacred places and strange behavior towards their land was inexplicable. The newcomers seemed to knock down trees without any reason, for they were not making canoes, gathering bush honey or catching animals. Stones were moved and stacked together, clay dug up, shaped and cooked, holes were made in the ground, large unwieldy structures built. At first , they may have equated the clearing with the creation of a sacred ceremonial ground…Perhaps they thought a huge ritual gathering was to be held, dangerous business from which they should steer well. There is no doubt the Daruks subsequently avoided the settlement, for the only way to bring them back, was by an official kidnapping.
