VOYAGES
OF DISCOVERY - THE GREAT SOUTH LAND
From as early as 400 AD
Europeans suspected that a vast landmass existed beyond the Indian Ocean, but it
took 1400 years before this mysterious continent was finally located, charted
and named 'Australia'.
Through actual journals, log books, letters, paintings, prints and
drawings kept onboard, you’ll uncover first hand the events of these voyages,
encompassing shipboard life, encounters with the indigenous people, cultural
insights, along with descriptions of the strange new flora, fauna and topography
