Now I'm reading an adventure book about the Pilbara in Western Australia. I can't find an exact meaning for Pilbara.
And another short story about a scientific exhibition to an Icy Antarctic desert Island.
So I'm reading about adventures in deserts basically. Lol...

The Pilbara Aboriginal Language Centre Wangka Maya says that the name for the Pilbara region derives from the Aboriginal word bilybara, meaning 'dry' in the Nyamal and Banyjima languages.
Alternatively, others claim that the region takes its name from pilbarra, an Aboriginal word for the mullet (fish).
