The Sydney area has been inhabited by indigenous Australians for at least 30,000 years.[11] Lieutenant James Cook first landed at Kurnell in 1770, when navigating his way up the east coast of Australia on his ship, HMS Endeavour. It was not until 1788 when the First Fleet, which contained convicts and was led by Captain Arthur Phillip, arrived in Botany Bay to found Sydney as a penal colony, the first European settlement in Australia.[12] Phillip named the city "Sydney" in recognition of The 1st Baron Sydney.[13] Although urban development has destroyed much of the city's indigenous history, there continues to be examples of rock art and engravings located in the protected Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park.[14]
