The First Nations Lands of Hume and Hovell's famous expedition to Port Phillip in 1824

In this video I display my map of First Nations Australia and the Aboriginal Lands I will travel through when I visit the countryside my ancestor Captain William Hilton Hovell explored and wrote about in 1824/5.

Thank you for sharing that wonderful resource with us! The sheer level of pre-European diversity is impressive, and quite poignant (so many cultures, and so much knowledge disrupted or lost). I wonder how many of these nations had/has a distinct language, versus overlapping dialects. Looking forward to following your journey here. :)

You’re welcome. The map is a good starting point, there is so much more info for me to research through on line resources and books and yarning with people. I’m glad to have you along for the journey 😊
