Mandara people (Australia)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Mandara were an indigenous Australian people of the Pilbara region of Western Australia. They are extinct, having been absorbed into neighbouring peoples, and their language is unrecorded.
According to Norman Tindale, the Mandara's tribal lands extended over some 1,500 square miles (3,900 km2). Compared to other highlander tribes in this area of the Puilbara, the Mandara were small in numbers, and were concentrated in parts of the Ophthalmia Range and the plateau area lying at the head of the Turee and Weediwolli creeks. Their southern confines touched Prairie Downs.[1]
