  1. It is said to be a Yabula-yabula word for "deep hole in the river". Yabula-yabula is the language of the people of the area. It hasn't been confirmed and is unlikely to be now as the language is probably extinct.


  2. To  ***  Wal

  3. Tocumwal, which took its name from an Aboriginal word "Tocumival", meaning "deep hole" began life as river port.
