| Description |
This route follows part of the Great Southern Highway and tells of a rare love story between a soldier garrisoned at Albany who became a farmer and a local woman. The Nyoongar marriage system is complicated and has changed over time. This is explained in the book; 'Moort A celebration of a traditional and contemporary Aboriginal Family' by Robertson, Nannup, Coall, McAulley and Nannup (Batchelor Press).
The WA Journey Ways project relates Aboriginal travel routes with main roads and geology. |
