The Uluru Curse otherwise known as "Sorry Rocks"

Wirritjin Forum Sacred Rocks

While the concept of Sacred rocks may sound strange to some people, it is something that is not strange to visitors to Uluru (formerly known as Ayers Rock).

Uluru’s post office receives over 300 packages a year from tourists who have posted back rocks and sand they have taken from Uluru.

If you google “rocks returned to Uluru post office” you will see quite a few news and blog articles about people who have had bad luck since taking rocks and wishing to return them.

Here are just a few articles about peoples experiences taking, and then returning Uluru’s rocks.

Have any stories to tell about your experience with Uluru rocks? Please post them below.

I had never heard of the term ‘sorry rocks’ until now, and need I am guilty of moving rocks all over the world! In fact, I picked up one of the ‘sacred star rocks’ kept safe by Steve Strong. I have often wondered about the implications of my earth moving endeavours and should perhaps make some of my own personal journeys to return some of my own ‘sorry rocks’.
