Jagara People occupied the area of southern Brisbane. Coopers Plains was probably used by the Chepara people who gathered at Eight Mile Plains and the Yerongpan people who lived along Oxley Creek. The Yerongpan hunted from the Goodna area, across Coopers Plains to Brown Plains.
No physical evidence of the original inhabitants remains in Coopers Plains, although Cunningham did mention their presence in the area. There was a Bora ring at Camira and another on Toohey Mountain. The fig tree at Magnolia Cottage, Sunnybank, is reputed to mark the spot of a Bora or dance ring.
The wide flat plains and wooded hillsides provided good hunting grounds for native fauna and the abundant creeks supplied turtles and yabbies as well as fish and eels. The marshy areas along Stable Swamp Creek were a haven for water birds and the ‘imboon’ or ‘jumbun’ a bullrush whose roots the Aborigines would strip and chew. Yimbun Park in nearby Macgregor was named after these.
