Barindji (NSW)
|
| | Location | In mallee, mulga, swamp, and sand country parallel to and east of Darling River from Moira to within 30 miles (48 km.) of Euston; eastward to near Ivanhoe; at Manara Range, Albermarle, Carowra, Kilfera, and Manfred. The term is said to mean 'forest people' but may have originated in the name of a creek, the Paroo, and be related to former tribal links. The Darling River aborigines called them Mamba-'devils'-and 'regarded them with the most abject terror' (Peckey, 1872:146). Their water often was obtained from the roots of water mallee (Eucalyptus) trees and Hakea, hence their camping places were widely dispersed and often were casual. Eight hordes were listed by Cameron (1885) namely Lagerung, Murro, Milparo, Boanjilla, Pularli, Nielyi-gulli, Kurlkgulli, Karndukul. Not to be confused with the Parundji of the Paroo River. |
