Nanggikorongo
The Nanggikorongo are an indigenous Australian people of the Northern territory.
Name
There is some dispute as to whether Nanggikorongo refers to this tribe or is a "big name" toponym for a place on the Murinbata coastline.[1]
Country
The Nanggikorongo's traditional lands extended over some 1,200 square miles (3,100 km2), east of Wadeye/Port Keats and inland to the Moyle River.[1]
People
W. E. H.Stanner suggested Nangiomeri as an alternative name, while Norman Tindale called for further research to clarify what relation the Nanggikorongo had with the more easterly Nanggumiri.[1]
Alternative names
- Mangikurungu.
- Nordaniman. (an error)
- Nordanimin.[1]
