Yindjibarndi Bawa

Located in the far northwest of Western Australia, our traditional lands encompass a vast tract of the central and western Pilbara including Nhanggangunha (Millstream); Yurlburr (Python Pool); Gambulanha (Hamersley Ranges) and Yarnda Nyirra (the Fortescue River). Our waterways and springs, and the ceremonies of our Yulara (rainmakers) give life to every living creature on our tableland homelands. Across our country, permanent water holes (Yinda) have long provided life enriching sustenance to Ngaardangarli (Aboriginal people), as camping places of shade and coolness, rich in plant, animal, bird, fish and reptile life.
