AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'These are the hills around Lumpulumpu, a place with mixed memories for me. It is beautiful Country with sad feelings from the past. This is my mother and father’s Country, between Christmas Creek station and Cherrabun station. Before I was born, my family lived around this area. It is good rocky Country. There is good living water here. My father [father’s brother] was killed here at Lumpulumpu.' (Source: Mira webiste)
