Pooraka, South Australia : ウィキペディア英語版 | Pooraka, South Australia
Pooraka (postcode: 5095) is a suburb in Adelaide, South Australia. It is around 12 km north of the central business district. ''Pooraka East'' Post Office opened on 1 December 1965 and closed in 1986. ==History== The origin of the name Pooraka is obscure. Originally known as "Dry Creek" after the name of the local post office, in 1916, the District Council of Yatala renamed the suburb Pooraka, which they believed to be an Indigenous Kaurna word meaning "dry creek," however, the name bears no resemblance to the Kaurna words for 'dry' or 'creek'. Pooraka, with the same spelling, has been identified as an Indigenous New South Wales name for the 'turpentine tree' which is not found in South Australia.
