On
22 January, two cutters and a long boat sail into the harbour. Captain Arthur
Phillip watches the Aboriginal men who wade into the water without their spears
to examine the English boats. Phillip writes “their confidence and manly
behaviour made me give the name Manly Cove to this place”. Phillip’s
Instructions are to “conciliate their affections … maintain friendly relations
with the natives if possible”.
