A bora was a raised earthen circle, traditionally built by women, and used as a meeting place for all kinds of activities. In the local language it was called a 'durn'. There's a fairly well preserved one in the Glass House Mountains region, off Johnston Rd. Nearby, in fact 60m nearby, there was supposedly a 'kippa ring', a smaller circle in which adolescent boys were initiated into adulthood.
There's little info about where this particular kippa ring actually is or was. About 60m nearby is a flat bit of bulldozed land. Here's hoping that it's not there? Do let me know if you've any further information about this.
A few kilometres to the north, on the Old Gympie Road on the way upto Landsborough, there's Little Rocky Creek, and a collection of stone tool sharpening grooves.
Fine examples. I suspect there are more such places. Sensibly hidden away from the public maybe?
