Keith is a modern Limestone Coast rural service town 226 km s-e of Adelaide. As with many other towns within the 'Ninety Mile Desert', the addition of soil trace elements and Murray River water transformed Keith's infertile lands into rich agricultural areas. The Ngarranjeri Aborigines first occupied this region with permanent European settlement only beginning in 1880s.
