Chambers Pillar is a striking sandstone column rising to a height of 50m out of the white sandy plain. The first white man to see it, in 1860, was John McDouall Stuart, who named it after his sponsor James Chambers (whose daughter's name was given to the Katherine River). Chambers Pillar served as a landmark for travelers in the Red Centre. It played an important part in Aboriginal mythology, which held that Itirkawara, the gecko ancestor, was turned into the rock.
