Description

It is possible that Jimberlana  (Norseman) is a mangle of djimbarl (flint spear) because this is parna purinya (stony ground) within the forests. To the east is Munda Boornup (Rock of the earth now the Fraser Range) and to the west is a group of hills including Charles Peake where there is plenty of flint. Flint was used to tip spears and it was also used to make fire. Jimberlana a was a crossroads on the trade route for ancient Aboriginal people.
