He visits an Aboriginal camp near Camp Cove where “about a dozen
natives of the Sydney and Broken Bay tribes were encamped”, and persuades ‘Old
Queen Gooseberry’, Bungaree’s widow, to explain to him what she knew of the
North Head carvings. She initially objects, saying that these places were
‘koradjee ground’ or ‘priests’ ground’ that she must not visit. After she was
encouraged to row across the harbour with them in a whale boat, she “consented at the last to guide us to
several spots near the North head, where she said the carvings existed in great
numbers, as also impressions of hands upon the sides of high rocks”.
