Geocache Description:

A local project recognising the Gundunurra people.

Some Mythology of the Gundungurra Tribe, New South Wales
R. H. Mathews First published in Zeitschrift für Ethnologie, vol. 40, 1908, pp. 203-06
The territory of the Gundungurra tribe includes Burragorang, Katoomba, Picton, Berrima, Taralga and Goulburn, with the intervening country. The Bunan ceremony of initiation described by me in 1896 applies to the Gundungurra, in common with the Thurrawal and Thoorga tribes. In the present article I am submitting a legendary tale which I obtained personally from the remnants of the Gundungurra tribe now residing at Burragorang on the Wollondilly River.
