Bungaree

Bungaree, or Boongaree (c. 1775 – 24 November 1830), was an Indigenous Australian man from the Broken Bay region north of Sydney, who was known as an explorer, entertainer, and Aboriginal community leader. He is also significant in that he was the first person to be recorded as an Australian, and the first Australian-born person to circumnavigate the Australian mainland.
