The town's name is a result of the shortening of the Indigenous Australian word for a nearby spring, Pocanmaya. The name was first recorded by surveyors in 1876. The town originated as a railway siding on the Mullewa to Wongan Hills that was planned in 1913. The townsite was gazetted in 1913 and the railway commenced operation in 1915.[2] In 1932 the Wheat Pool of Western Australia announced that the town would have two grain elevators, each fitted with an engine, installed at the railway siding.[3] The surrounding areas produce wheat and other cereal crops. The town is a receival site for Cooperative Bulk Handling.[4] References1. ^{{Census 2006 AUS|id=SSC54661 |name=Maya (State Suburb)|quick=on|accessdate=10 October 2008}} {{Towns Mid West WA}}{{WesternAustralia-stub}}2. ^{{LandInfo WA|c|M|10 October 2008}} 3. ^{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article32560140 |title=Country elevators |newspaper=The West Australian|location=Perth|date=6 July 1932|accessdate=6 April 2013|page=10|publisher=National Library of Australia}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.cbh.com.au/media/120302/cbh%20receival%20sites%20-%20contact%20details.pdf |title=CBH receival sites |year=2011 |accessdate=1 April 2013 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120318082458/https://www.cbh.com.au/media/120302/cbh%20receival%20sites%20-%20contact%20details.pdf |archivedate=18 March 2012 |df= }} 2 : Mid West (Western Australia)|Grain receival points of Western Australia |
