Tjalkadjara (WA)
|
| | Location | Northeast of Laverton to Lake Throssell; west nearly . to Darlot; at Erlistoun; north to Lake Wells. Their water supplies were largely from the roots of eucalypts. The oldest living survivor was born at ['Pabul] (Babool Rockhole on maps) northeast of their claimed boundary at ['Baldja] (Baldya Soak on maps). Capell (1963) incorrectly associated this tribe with the Pini under his term 'Birni' and 'Binirid-jara.' They were driven northwestward to Darlot after 1900 by pressure from Nangatadjara. Possession of their red ochre mine at Taralguta, north of Laverton, was a cause of conflict with other tribespeople. It was a solid red ochre (not powdery) much traded to tribes in the northwest. |
