Description


Tarragal Caves
The Tarragal Caves are a network of large limestone caves and rockshelters which overlook the Bridgewater Lakes near the towns of Tarragal and Cape Bridgewater, Victoria in the Charles La Trobe and are near Discovery Bay Coastal Park. The caves were idenitifed as important Aboriginal camping places early in the historic perod, and were excavated in the late 1970s by Harry Lourandos,[1] revealing stratified deposits in the floor of 11,300 years old, along with shell midden deposits and earth ovens over 11,000 years old.[2]
