Name
[ edit ]
According to an earlier resident of the area, the tribal autonym referred to the native brushturkey .
Country
[ edit ]
Norman Tindale calculated that they had roughly 7,600 square miles (20,000 km 2 ) of territory, from the middle Norman , Yappar and Clara rivers northwards to Milgarra . Their eastern boundary lay near the Gregory Range ,[a] while the western frontier was at Iffley and Canobie .
History of contact
[ edit ]
With the onset of white settlement, the tribe's demographic statistics suggested an original population of some 400 people. Within two decades, the numbers had been halved, with 200 remaining, as a result of what one observer stated was 'the rifle and syphilis'. A branch of the Maikulan soon shifted down the Norman River to settle around Normanton , which misled some early reports to take them to be indigenous to the latter area.
