| Layer Id | 479 | Name | Colonists Retreat From Aboriginal Raids On The South Road |
| Description | After raids by Aboriginal people and attacks upholding Aboriginal law, on colonists, their livestock and homesteads, many colonists retreated. These points show the locations retreated to, not from. In some cases, the retreat involved several points. Eg: Faithfull's men retreated from Benalla to the Ovens River. He later retreated from the cattle run on King River to the sheep run on Oxley Plains at the Ovens River, from which they were routed, one convict fleeing as far north as Yass. | Subject Keywords | indigenous, aboriginal, frontier war |
