The Corn Field Raids of 1827–1828 was a frontier conflict in the early Moreton Bay Penal Settlement. The conflict consisted of Aboriginal groups plundering and destruction of the maize fields in South Bank and Kangaroo Point.[1] Potential motives for the raiders include the lack of the distinction between cultivated crops and available natural resources to the native inhabitants,[2] the taking of the crop as partial compensation for the continuing occupation of the settlers and as a warning to prevent further expansion beyond the colony's current bounds.[3]
