Hundred of Kulpara

The Hundred of Kulpara is a cadastral unit of hundred located on the northern Yorke Peninsula in South Australia and centred on the township of Kulpara.

The name Kulpara is thought to derive from an indigenous term meaning 'water in the head'.

Apart from the town of Kulpara, the hundred also contains the localities of Paskeville, Melton and South Hummocks.

The District Council of Green's Plains was established in 1871, bringing the hundreds of Kadina and Kulpara under local administration for the first time.

In 1888 the new District Council of Kadina absorbed all of Green's Plains as well as surrounding unincorporated lands in the hundreds of Moonta and Wallaroo.
