Ediacara Hills are a range of low hills in the northern part of the Flinders Ranges of South Australia, around 650 km north of Adelaide. The hills contain fossils of early multicellular life forms, the Ediacaran biota (lagerstätte), and have given their name to the Ediacaran geological period. The name "Ediacara" has an unclear origin from one of the Aboriginal languages near the Flinders Range area. Either, it comes from Idiyakra ("water is present"), or it is a mispronunciation of Yata Takarra ("hard/stony ground") [1].
