Europeans started settling in the Kalkadoon's homelands around 1860. At first relations were peaceful but as numbers of new settlers increased, things became more hostile and the Kalkadoons eventually resorted to guerrilla war.[1] Battle MountainIn 1884 the Kalkadoons killed five native police and a prominent pastoralist. The Queensland government sent in heavily armed police and ended up fighting the Kalkadoon at Battle Mountain. The Europeans were ultimately victorious.[2] References1. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.cherneesutton.com.au/index.php?_a=document&doc_id=8|author=Chern’ee Sutton|title=Kalkadoon history |website=cherneesutton.com.au|accessdate=2018-08-10}} {{Campaignbox Australian frontier wars}}2. ^{{cite web|url=https://australianmuseum.net.au/indigenous-australia-the-land|title=The Land|website=Australian Museum|accessdate=2018-08-10}} 3 : History of Indigenous Australians|History of Queensland|19th century in Queensland |
