Many thanks for both those replies. In east Australia, Indooroopilly means "running waters" and is a part of Brisbane city on the river. Possibly it is "Indra, Pillaiyar". Gurree is a beautiful forested island nearby, made by the shining sky-woman who made mountains, like Gouri. Durga is the evil spirit-woman south from Brisbane, and Mahhji is the strong god, like Mahaji a title of Shiva in Thailand. Dahndahra is the name of a mountain stream at Kambadjha, like Sanskrit dhAnA dahra "bountiful, swift stream". Bangalow means a palm-tree, like palm-thatch bangala shrines of Shiva in Bengal, and in Bali Indonesia. The country is Bundjalung, and 3 men named Mamoon, Ya Birrein and Birrung sailed a ship here from Ngareenbeil, and ngara means "ceremony". Negara was the ceremonial state-system in Bali, and negara is Malay for "national".
Indian people here comment on the Indic nature of Bundjalung place-names on street signs, and the appearance of those people. This week they were given land-rights by the government to affirm the ancestral title in Bundjalung land.
