Dedication

Front Inscription

                     They are remembered.
Soil from the ancient ceremonial ground to a distant once blood soaked beach :
Soil from the once blood soaked beach of Gallipoli to a home once called Trowernna ;
This mixing of soils creates a link between the past and the present offering a spirit road for all Aborignal dead to find their way home. This is a spirit road in memory of all who fought, lived and died in batttlefields so far away.
