Latjilatji (VIC)
|
| | Location | Chalka Creek to Mildura on southern bank of Murray River; at Kulkyne; ranging about 50 miles (80 km.) south from river to near Murrayville and Pine Plains. On Smyth's map the name of this tribe apparently is transposed with that of his 'Darty Darty' (i.e., Tatitati). Eyre gives a vocabulary of the tribe under the name Boraipar, placing them east of Moorunde and indicates their word for no is 'latto' ['latja]. Beveridge (1889:172) suggests this tribe and the Watiwati had a common boundary, which is not borne out by other data. Curr (1887) gathered a vocabulary from them at Kulkyne. |
