Kungkari language

Kungkari (Gunggari) is an extinct, unclassified Australian Aboriginal language. Geographically it lay near the Barcoo River between the Karnic and Maric languages, but had no obvious connection to either; the data is too poor to draw any conclusions on classification. There is another language by the same name which was Maric.[3][2]
