Taroom Aboriginal Settlement
Taroom Aboriginal Settlement, Indigenous Protected Area in Bundulla, Taroom, Queensland, Australia.
The settlement spans across substantial land near the Dawson River, featuring remnants of historical structures and two separate cemetery grounds.
Established in 1911 under government control, the settlement operated until 1927, housing Aboriginal people from various language groups across Queensland.
The settlement grounds contain archaeological evidence of both European and traditional Aboriginal burial practices, reflecting the intersection of different cultural traditions.
Visitors can access information about the settlement through the Queensland Heritage Register and local historical archives in Taroom.
The site manufactured mud bricks starting in 1921, introducing new construction methods that influenced other Aboriginal settlements in Queensland.
