This section of the website 'Bound for South Australia 1836' contains a brief account written by a 21st-century historian about the Aboriginal peoples connected to country that became part of the province of South Australia. The text describes the British government's efforts to protect the rights of the local people, their long-established connection to the country, contacts with white sealers and the effect of smallpox in the early 1830s. There are links in the text to information about the South Australian Colonization Commission and to a significant document, the Letters Patent.
