* The Early European Settlement in Caloundra Slides contains an image of a deceased Aboriginal man.
The conference started with “Welcome to Country” and a presentation by First Nations Speaker, Lyndon Davis on life for the traditional owners before European settlement. His talk was captivating. He brought a number of tools and other items for us to view. He also played the didgeridoo for us including a special request by one of the audience.
Lyndon agreed to let me publish an image of him on our website, and for possible future use on social media and I was fortunate to be in the photo. Also following are a photo of the tools and other items and a close-up shot of some items.
