It is in the Shire of Moyne local government area and the federal Division of Wannon. The name 'Caramut' is believed to be derived from the aboriginal word 'cooramook' thought to mean 'plenty of possums'.[1] At the 2006 census, Caramut and the surrounding area had a population of 392.[2] At the 2016 census, Caramut and the surrounding area had a population of 246.[3] HistoryIn 1839 the Caramut area was first settled by John Muston as a pastoral run. In 1842, the Lubra Creek massacre of five Dhauwurd wurrung aboriginals took place on the Caramut run, leased by Thomas Osbrey and Sidney Smith at the time.[4][5][6] The Post Office opened on 1 March 1848 as Muston's Creek and was renamed Caramut in 1854.[7] CommunityThe town has an Australian Rules football team competing in the Mininera & District Football League.
