old multi ringed bimblebox at Avon
same tree different angle Avon
whitewood ring possibly natural
This pine "ring" is too young 2B cultural
These bimblebox ringtrees are cultural !
Ring 1 needed to be tied together longer
Ring 2 needed a grinding stone inserted for longer
In my opinion this is a rudimentary Ring tree

Whitewood Ringtree looking more like a sculpture TB
this whitewood tree has been split & rejoined in the centre TB
The holey whitewood is an accidental ringtree caused by branch fall
This is a very old Tallowood Ringtree near Comboyne on the GDR
the Ring is deliberate but for Dunghutti? cultural reasons
this is a coolabah ringtree in Warrambool paddock
here is the inosculation point where the branches were tied
and here is the billabong where it lives. When the billabong you can dig for water
this is possibly a more recent coolabah ringtree in Cumbul
you can see how the branches are touching but not really joining
This coolibah at Cuddie springs may be a more recent ringtree
the branches aren't properly merged but the shape is typical
I call this old coolabah next door the 3 ringed circus
they have woven & attached a branch up through the centre
also has a very old trunk ring - has to be seen to be believed!
This coolabah ringtree was 1 of 4 around the waterhole in the background
the old natural catchment aka billabong. Was Important back then
prototype ring - the trunk & epicormic shoot are joined
reverse side - not a ring but not natural either T
ringtree with pointer in Tungra - very clever
reverse side - have only seen 1 other ringtree with pointer - on Guiseley 20 ks north
rosewood ring that could be the result of scrub cutting T
hard to tell if this junction is natural or cultural in origin
blackbox ringtree Boree
wailwun ringtree Boree
1 of those maybe/maybe not ringtrees Boree
the other side is also inconclusive Boree

in drought this ringtree says DIG HERE
nearby ringtree at Spillbury
there are 4 ringtrees here & a TinT
another fire related ring at the same location
this is the reverse side ...
this ringtree is right beside a rosewood TinT
4 ringtrees & 1 TinT means this was a very important place!
this Ring points toward a large billabong on sandhill edge T
It was created by separating & tying the trunks together
this is NOT a Ringtree the hole its caused by opposing scarfaces falling out over time
This boxtree Ring may or may not be genuine
there is a definite inosculation point but it could be natural
This Tungra Ringtree is very old and has almost closed up
within a few decades this ring will be gone
This is a shame because the cultural information displayed will be lost
this is a redgum Ring in the sandhills but is probably natural
the inosculation point is not old. The redgums themselves prove there is underground water
Ringtrees were created to indicate the availability of water
the inosculation point here is hundreds of year old
this could be a deliberate "ring" - Ive seen this type before
they were adept at shaping trees - the original "treechangers"
Ringtree at bob's camp Tungra
the reverse scar is fire related - shame the top branch has broken off
rosewood ring - probably caused by branch drop
why were circles were made & their edges burnt - navigation aid?
wailwun ringtree
I think its a black box ring from memory
leopardwood ring also natural I think
