The Turrbal are a tribe of Australian Aboriginal people who inhabited the region around the city of Brisbane before European settlement of Australia.[1] Tom Petrie, an early pioneer of Brisbane, shows the kind and trustworthy nature of the Turrbal people. He demonstrates how they were forgiving, even when treated horrible by someone else. The Turrbal language was spoken "inland as Gold Creek or Moggil, as far north as North Pine, and south to the Logan" [2]
