James Davis (also known as Duramboi; baptised 2 August 1807 – 7 May 1889) was a Scottish-born convict notable for escaping custody in Australia and living with Aboriginals for thirteen years.
He assimilated into the native culture and lived as a Kabi Kabi man until his location by Andrew Petrie in 1842. Davis subsequently rejoined Western society and worked as a blacksmith, shopkeeper and interpreter.
James Davis was born in Glasgow, Scotland,[1] to blacksmith Walter Davis and his wife Mary McGrigor. On 2 August 1807, he was christened James Davie in Strathblane.[2]
