Abstract
Narrabeen Man is not a reference to the current male inhabitants of the northern Sydney suburb, it is the name given to the 4000 year old indigenous Australian whose remains were discovered in December 2007. Workmen carrying out a routine excavation near a bus shelter in Octavia Street, Narrabeen were responsible for the remarkable discovery. Having determined that Narrabeen man had died as a result of a spear wound and not a prolonged wait for the arrival of a bus, his bones were returned to the ground in Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park.
