The people of the Murray River knew the star as Totyerguil.

The Murray River was formed when Totyerguil the hunter speared Otjout, a giant Murray Cod, who, when wounded, churned a channel across southern Australia before entering the sky as the constellation Delphinus.

People starting with John Oxley in 1817, 1818 and 1821, followed by Charles Sturt in 1829 – 1830 attempted to follow the westward-flowing rivers to find an " inland sea ", but these were found to all flow into the Murray River and Darling River which turn south.

George French Angus may have collected a description of a bunyip in his account of a " water spirit " from the Moorundi people of the Murray River before 1847, stating it is " much dreaded by them … It inhabits the Murray ; but … they have some difficulty describing it.

The Murray River ( River Murray in South Australia ) is Australia's longest river.

As of 2010, the Murray River system receives 58 % of its natural flow.

The Murray River forms part of the long combined Murray-Darling river system which drains most of inland Victoria, New South Wales, and southern Queensland.

Past this point, the Murray River is entirely within the state of South Australia.

The Murray River ( and associated tributaries ) support a variety of unique river life adapted to its vagaries.

This includes a variety of native fish such as the famous Murray cod, trout cod, golden perch, Macquarie perch, silver perch, eel-tailed catfish, Australian smelt and western carp gudgeon, to name a few, and other aquatic species like the Murray short-necked turtle, Murray River crayfish, broad-clawed yabbies and the large clawed Macrobrachium shrimp, as well as aquatic species more widely distributed through south-eastern Australia such as common long-necked turtles, common yabbies, the small claw-less Paratya shrimp, water rats and Platypus.

The Murray River also supports fringing corridors and forests of the famous river red gum.

The health of the Murray River has declined significantly since European settlement, particularly due to river regulation, and much of its aquatic life including native fish are now declining, rare or endangered.

Introduced fish species such as Carp, Gambusia, weather loach, redfin perch and brown trout and rainbow trout have also had serious negative effects on native fish, while Carp have contributed to environmental degradation of the Murray River and tributaries by destroying aquatic plants and permanently raising turbidity.

Between 2. 5 and 0. 5 million years ago the Murray River terminated in a vast freshwater lake called Lake Bungunia.

Lake Bungunia was formed by earth movement that blocked the Murray River near Swan Reach during this period of time.

A section of the original Murray River channel immediately behind the fault was abandoned, and exists today as an empty channel known as Green Gully.

The Murray Canal has been cut through the " Carrying Place ", the few miles separating the end of the bay and Lake Ontario on the west side.

Egoism has also been referenced by those who claim themselves to be anarcho-capitalists, such as Murray Rothbard.

Murray Bookchin has identified post-left anarchy as a form of individualist anarchism in Social Anarchism or Lifestyle Anarchism: An Unbridgeable Chasm where he identifies " a shift among Euro-American anarchists away from social anarchism and toward individualist or lifestyle anarchism.

Murray Bookchin has put it this way " what of the syndicalist ideal of " collectivized " self-managed enterprises that are coordinated by like occupations on a national level and coordinated geographically by " collectives " on a local level ?... Here, the traditional socialist criticism of this syndicalist form of economic management is not without its point: the corporate or private capitalist, " worker-controlled " or not "” ironically, a technique in the repertoire of industrial management that is coming very much into vogue today as " workplace democracy " and " employee ownership " and constitutes no threat whatever to private property and capitalism ... In any case, " economic democracy " has not simply meant " workplace democracy " and " employee ownership.

The Murray has also flooded on occasion, the most significant of which was the 1956 flood which inundated many towns on the lower Murray and lasted for up to six months.

Being one of the major river systems in one of the driest continents of Earth, the Murray has significant cultural relevance to Indigenous Australians.

The Murray River has been a significant barrier to land-based travel and trade.

These changes ensured the availability of water for irrigation and made the Murray Valley Australia's most productive agricultural region, but have seriously disrupted the life cycles of many ecosystems both inside and outside the river, and the irrigation has led to dryland salinity that now threatens the agricultural industries.

The disruption of the river's natural flow, run-off from agriculture, and the introduction of pest species like the European Carp has led to serious environmental damage along the river's length and to concerns that the river will be unusably salty in the medium to long term — a serious problem given that the Murray supplies 40 % of Adelaide's domestic water.

Then, five pages later, she quotes the same passage again, but this time in full, straw and all, to show how witches had hallucinations of flight ( Murray 1921, 105-6 ); she does not realise that she has thereby wrecked her previous rationalistic interpretation of the passage.

So much has happened in the historiography of witchcraft that what seemed at first a wide gulf between Rose and Murray now seems narrower, and factors shared by the two have become clearer.

Jani Farrell-Roberts has argued that Cohn is misrepresenting Murray, for she did indeed discuss such fantastical elements at length, and many of the supposedly omitted passages can be found in her books.

Edison cares about his co-workers, especially Theora Jones and Bryce Lynch, and he has a deep respect for his producer Murray ( although he rarely shows it ).

Additionally, Murray Rothbard, the founder of anarcho-capitalism, has opined that Thoreau was one of the " great intellectual heroes " of his movement.

Alan V. Murray, however, has argued that, at least for the accounts of Persia and the Turks in his chronicle, William relied on Biblical and earlier medieval legends rather than actual history, and his knowledge " may be less indicative of eastern ethnography than of western mythography.

Furthermore, John Murray believed that Disraeli had caricatured him and abused his confidence – an accusation denied at the time, and by the official biography, although subsequent biographers ( notably Blake ) have sided with Murray.

Indeed, Disraeli had objected to Murray about Croker inserting " high Tory " sentiment, writing that " it is quite impossible that anything adverse to the general measure of Reform can issue from my pen.

The pioneers of the various Wiccan or Witchcraft traditions, such as Gerald Gardner, Doreen Valiente and Robert Cochrane, all claimed that their religion was a continuation of the pagan religion of the Witch-Cult following historians who had purported the Witch-Cult's existence, such as Jules Michelet and Margaret Murray.

Margaret Murray had mentioned this information in her 1933 book The God of the Witches, and Hutton theorised that Alex Sanders had taken it from there, enjoying the fact that he shared his name with the ancient Macedonian emperor.

Following the writings of suffragist Matilda Joslyn Gage and others, Margaret Murray, in her 1921 book The Witch-Cult in Western Europe, proposed the theory that the witches of the early-modern period were remnants of a pagan cult and that the Christian Church had declared the god of the witches was in fact the Devil.

James Fox of Derby had a healthy export trade in machine tools for the first third of the century, as did Matthew Murray of Leeds.

By the turn of the 20th century, the heyday of individualist anarchism had passed, although aspects of the individualist anarchist tradition were later revived with modifications by Murray Rothbard and his anarcho-capitalism in the mid-20th century, as a current of the broader libertarian movement.

Murray Rothbard, a student of Ludwig von Mises, combined the Austrian school economics of his teacher with the absolutist views of human rights and rejection of the state he had absorbed from studying the individualist American anarchists of the 19th century such as Lysander Spooner and Benjamin Tucker.

Ironically, Peter Hain had served as president of the Young Liberals when they called for the impeachment of Mr. Murray in 1977.

In 1830 Captain Charles Sturt reached the river after travelling down its tributary the Murrumbidgee River and named it the Murray River in honour of the then British Secretary of State for War and the Colonies, Sir George Murray, not realising it was the same river that Hume and Hovell had encountered further upstream.
