Grave of Windradyne, Aboriginal burial site in Brucedale, Australia.
The burial ground contains a stone pillar with a commemorative plaque and an axe head marking the final resting place of a Wiradjuri leader.
Windradyne led the Wiradjuri resistance against European settlers during the 1820s Bathurst Wars before establishing peace negotiations with the colonial government in 1824.
The burial site reflects traditional Wiradjuri funeral practices, where the deceased was wrapped in a possum skin cloak along with personal weapons.
The National Parks and Wildlife Service installed protective fencing around the burial grounds in 2000 to preserve this significant heritage location.
The grave site marks where William Suttor, a European settler who maintained respectful relations with Indigenous people, honored Windradyne through public mourning notices.
