"He"

[edit]

"European exploration of central Australia began in 1860. He successfully crossed the continent from north to south on his third attempt in 1863. He passed through the MacDonnell Ranges through Brinkley Bluff, although the terrain was considered to be too rough for the Overland Telegraph Line."

This is before William Mills has been introduced in the section. Who is this referring to? Scotsman John McDouall Stuart. Prisoner of Zenda (talk) 10:22, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Euro

[edit]

@Tenniscourtisland: In this edit you wrote ...its creation story describes an old Arunga (euro) man walking along the river.... As I understand it, a euro is a common wallaroo which doesn't make a lot of sense. So is he a man or is he a marupial? SpinningSpark 15:53, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
