Woollarawarre Bennelong was a senior man of the Eora, an Aboriginal Koori people of the Port Jackson area, at the time of the first British settlement in Australia, in 1788. Bennelong served as an interlocutor between the Eora and the British, both in Sydney and in the United Kingdom. Woollarawarre Bennelong, the son of Goorah-Goorah and Gagolh, was a member of the Wangal clan, connected with the south side of Parramatta River, having close ties with the Wallumedegal clan, on the west side of the river, the Burramattagal clan near today's Parramatta, he had several sisters, Wariwéar, Karangarang, Wûrrgan and Munânguri, who married important men from nearby clans, thereby creating political links for their brother. He had five names, given at different times during the various ritual inductions he underwent; the other four are given as Wolarrebarre, Wogultrowe and Bundabunda. The island of Memel in Port Jackson was part of his personal property, inherited through his father, he had several wives: the first, whose name is not known, died from smallpox, before he was captured.

He married the Cammeray clanswoman Barangaroo, who died shortly after in 1791. He took up with a Gweagal woman, Kurubarabüla, after kidnapping her, they stayed together a year until his departure for England. On his return, he had a son, Dicky, by another woman, his last wife, buried with him, was Boorong. Bennelong was brought to the settlement at Sydney Cove in November 1789 by order of the governor, Arthur Phillip, under instructions from King George III to establish relationships with the indigenous populations. At that time the Eora conscientiously avoided contact with the newcomers, in desperation Phillip resorted to kidnap. A man named Arabanoo was captured, but he, like many other Aboriginal people near the settlement, died in a smallpox epidemic a few months in May 1789. Bennelong was captured with Colbee on 25 November 1789 as part of Phillip's plan to learn the language and customs of the local people. William Bradley painted a watercolour of the occasion and described the capture in his journal as the'most unpleasant service' he was ordered to undertake.

Bennelong's age, at the time of his capture, was estimated at 25, he was described as being'of good stature, stoutly made', with a'bold, intrepid countenance'. His appetite was such that'the ration of a week was insufficient to have kept him for a day', and'love and war seemed his favourite pursuits'. Colbee soon escaped, but Bennelong stayed in the settlement for several months slipped away. Four months he was sighted by officers in Manly Cove, Phillip was notified. One account has it that, on the day Phillip had organized a whale feast in order to reestablish relations with the Eora, the Governor hurried over and approached Bennelong, with a group of 20 warriors. Phillip took a gesture by Bennelong towards another Aboriginal person, Willemering, as an invitation for an introduction, extended his hand to the latter, who responded by spearing Phillip in the shoulder. A scuffle broke out, but the officers managed to lead the Governor away to safety. Willemering was a Kurdaitcha from Broken Bay, it has been suggested that he had been enlisted by Bennelong to carry out payback for the latter's sense of injury on having been kidnapped.

In this view, some form of atonement was necessary as a prelude to any further arrangements with the intrusive colonial power. Phillip ordered that no retaliation take place and Bennelong, some days turned up to visit him as he was recovering from the wound, their relationship was renewed, he maintained ongoing good relations with the colony and in a gesture of kinship, gave Phillip the Aboriginal name Wolawaree. He learned to speak English. In 1790, the governor built him a hut on what became known as Bennelong Point. Bennelong and another Aboriginal man named Yemmerrawanne travelled with Phillip on the Atlantic to England in 1792. Many historians have claimed that they were presented to King George III, but there is no direct evidence that this occurred. Soon after their arrival in England they were hurriedly made clothes that would have been suitable for their presentation to the King. Jack Brook reconstructs some of their activities from the expense claims lodged with the government, they visited St Paul's Cathedral and the Tower of London.

A boat was hired, they went bathing. They went to the theatre. While in London they resided with Henry Waterhouse, when Yemmerrawanne became sick, they moved to Eltham and resided at the house of Edward Kent, where they were tended by Mr and Mrs Phillips, met Lord Sydney. Yemmerrawanne died while in Britain after a serious chest infection, Bennelong's health deteriorated, he returned to Sydney in February 1795 on HMS Reliance, the ship that took surgeon George Bass to the colony for the first time. Bass nursed him back to health and in exchange Bennelong taught him a sufficient amount of Dharuk to enable the former to communicate with the indigenous Eora on arriving in Sydney. Of the 2 years and 10 months he spent abroad, 18 months had been passed either at sea or on board ships in a dock. Bennelong arrived back in Sydney on 7 September 1795. A letter he had drafted in 1796 to Mr and Mrs Phillips, thanking Mrs Phillips for caring for him in England, asking for stockings and a handkerchief, is the first known text written in English by an Indigenous Australian.

Within a short time he took to the bush, reappearing only to dine at the servants' table in Governor King's residence. Many colonial reports complain of his refusal to rejoining'polished society', he part
