I've...Hello Annabella, thanks for your comment. I've only just found it.<br />Yes Pigeon was an interesting fella. I found the picture in a book called Mari Nawi, about Indigenous seafarers. Well worth a read if you haven't found it already. Another good book on the subject is Roving Mariners by Lynette Russell.sarah toahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12412812914705725798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8649507973626411498.post-3748921861793187372017-10-18T14:03:48.186+08:002017-10-18T14:03:48.186+08:00Hi Sarah, your talk and research sounded fascinati...Hi Sarah, your talk and research sounded fascinating - wish I could have been there! I found your blog searching for the pic you have here of Pigeon aka Warroba who was an Indigenous man of the Shoalhaven area south of Sydney. I am writing a book about another man of that area know as Broughton who was a guide for white explorers & settlers and go-between for his people. He was slightly younger than Warroba so may have been influenced by him as I believe Warroba was the first Indigenous man from his area to go to Sydney and then he had a very adventurous life travelling with sealers to WA and then John Batman to Tasmania & Port Phillip (Victoria). An incredible feat for that time. Can I ask how you found his picture? as I have only seen it in a local history book from the Shoalhaven although it is obviously in the Tasmanian Museum, it's not listed on their website....Best wishes with your research Annabella.Annabella Brayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15478906397356781957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8649507973626411498.post-446402466001261582014-09-07T09:56:13.692+08:002014-09-07T09:56:13.692+08:00Hi Jen, it went well (I think).

Looking at it that way shows just how close South Africa, South America and Southern Australia are..<br />ciaranlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06668781624804602369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8649507973626411498.post-81195121892251659642014-08-24T17:01:49.762+08:002014-08-24T17:01:49.762+08:00Yes, I know, it will be fine.

Apparently native American Indians caught and ate some infected ones, and the disease spread via nomadic migration.
