We acknowledge we are on Kaurna Miyurna land. The Dreaming is still living. From the past, in the present, into the future, forever.

Cultural Sensitivity Warning
It is a condition of use of the cultural components of the Museum Archives that users ensure that any disclosure of information contained in this collection is consistent with the views and sensitivities of Indigenous people. Users are warned that there may be words and descriptions that may be culturally sensitive and which might not normally be used in certain public or community contexts. Users should also be aware that some records document research into people and cultures using a scientific research model dating from the first half of the twentieth century, and depicts people as research subjects in ways which may today be considered offensive. Some records contain terms and annotations that reflect the author's attitude or that of the period in which the item was written, and may be considered inappropriate today in some circumstances. Users should be aware that in some Indigenous communities, hearing names of deceased persons might cause sadness or distress, particularly to the relatives of these people. Furthermore, certain totemic symbols may also have prohibitions relating to the age, initiation and ceremonial status or clan of the person who may see them. Records included may be subject to access conditions imposed by Indigenous communities and/or depositors. Users are advised that access to some materials may be subject to these terms and conditions that the Museum is required to maintain.

Njunga (WA)

LocationFrom Young River east to Israelite Bay along the coast and inland for about 30 miles (50 km.), with a disputed area between Point Malcolm and a native place called ['Ka:p'kidja'kidj], at the northern end of Israelite Bay, claimed also by the Ngadjunmaia. These people had begun to accept circumcision but not subincision and had separated from hordes west of Young River who refused to undergo the rite and preferred the name Wudjari, although they also used on occasion the eastern name Nunga. The two have been mapped as separate tribes on the authority of several old men still living, including Murray Newman, now over eighty years of age. Many of the people had been taken by Bishop Salvado to the mission at New Norcia long before my chief informant was born and they had never returned; some descendants are now at Goomalling. References are combined with those for Wudjari.
