(Redirected from Kunibidji)

The Gunavidji people,[1] also written Kunibidji and Kunibídji and also known as the Ndjébbana, are an Aboriginal Australian people of Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory.

Language[edit]

The Gunavidji speak Ndjébbana, which is one of the Maningrida languages.

Country[edit]

Gunavidji traditional lands extend over some 500 square miles (1,300 km2) in and around the valley along the Liverpool River in and as far at the point where the Tomkinson River flows into the mangrove swamps. Their main base is at Maningrida township.[2]

Cultural practices[edit]

They do not practise circumcision.[2]
