Gidyea or Gidgee Tree
This tree was used by the Kalkadoon people to make Nulla Nulla's, shields, boomerangs, swords and clapsticks. It is a very hard wood and will burn for hours in a fireplace. The gidgee gum can be eaten and is a bit like honey but with a slight sour taste and it can be eaten to cure a sore throat as well.
