Gympie - Ancient harbour
It is a known fact among Geologists that an ancient harbour once connected Gympie to Tin Can Bay as late as 1000 years ago. It was up this harbour according to ancient aboriginal tradition that the mysterious ‘culture heroes’ sailed to build the sacred mountain (the pyramid) and apparently mine the region taking the rubble out to sea in their ships which the aborigines claim were shaped like birds. This might suggest the bird headed prows of the old Phoenician triremes. The ocean used to be at Gympie because in places 2 foot down is fine beach sand.
