Yep ...we are all still patiently waiting for the day when the people from world's oldest continuing culture, holding the same legal rights as a rock on a track before 1967, the traditional owners of this land, are at least acknowledged in the Constitution of Australia as part of the development of a treaty and edge closer to true reconciliation.

Yep - we are all still waiting ....

Appears as a large emu body

An engraving that appears as a large emu body on a large rock that may have been horizontally positioned before falling toward the creek can be found at Vinson Bay, Mount Kuringai.

Appears as an unusual pitted engraving, bottom of waterfall, Vinson Bay. Mt Kuringai


Appears as an unusual pitted engraving at the bottom of a waterfall at Vinson Bay, Mount Kuringai. Looks like some initials pick-axed into the creek bed.

Appears as a shield within a grooved water run-off area, Mundowi Street Trail (South)

Appears as a shield within a grooved water run-off area
There are a number of rock platforms that are easily accessible from the Mundowi Street, Mount Kurringai are (Beaumont Trig region). This appears to be a shield with two horizontal transverse lines. It is located on the southern run-off area upon a large rock ledge that runs east-west. There are other engravings documented nearby.  Not that unusual to find an isolated shield - these sometimes point toward a men-only meeting place.

Appears as an adult echidna, near Mt Kuringai Oval, Mt Kuringai

Appears as an adult echidna
This engraving appears as an adult echidna. For a rock platform the size it is you might expect to see more engravings. BMX bike tracks dominate the surface. There is another smaller "baby" echidna nearby.

Shield or Mundoe, F3, South East of Mt Kuringai Sacred Site

Large engraving - appears as a shield or large mundoe.
A number of large number of rock engraving platforms are located within the "watershed" that existed prior to the construction of the F3 north east of the Sacred Mt Kuringai Site. These sites are accessible via a 200 metre walk south of Emergency Bay 438. There are several rock platforms that perhaps have been slowly destroyed through road works and natural erosion.
