In the study of the place names of a region, i.e., the toponymy, the sequence of naming was, to a great extent, chronologically representative of land discovery and settlement. The toponymy of the south-eastern part of the Australian continent began in a time of unknown duration when the native inhabitants identified particular locations and features. The next phase in naming occured during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries by the explorers. Size: Octavo
