The 'Catalog of Australian Aboriginal Tribes' (Catalog) is an alphabetical list of Australian Aboriginal language groups, described by Norman Barnett Tindale as 'tribes', in Part II of his 1974 publication 'Aboriginal Tribes of Australia -Their Terrain, Environmental Controls, Distribution, Limits, and Proper Names'. This book serves as a catalogue to his 1974 map. The data from the Catalog has been reproduced electronically, incorporating the 'List of Alternatives, Variant Spellings, and Invalid Terms Associated with Australian Tribes' listed in Part III of the 1974 publication. Data includes: location, co-ordinates, area, references and alternative names. The online guide enables the researcher to search and browse the Catalog. Once the researcher has made a selection, a list of relevant South Australian Museum archival collections are retrieved and listed. The list of archival items is not conclusive as not all of the South Australian Museum archives have been processed. Please be aware that this Catalog represents Tindale's attempt to map Aboriginal language groups at the time of colonisation. It is not intended to represent contemporary relationships to land.
