The Marranunggu are an Aboriginal Australian people and language group,[1] of the Northern Territory.

Language

[edit]

Marranunggu is classified as one of the dialects of the Marranji group of the Western Daly languages, together with Menhthe and Emmi.[2]

Country

[edit]

The Marranunggu's traditional lands were south of the Daly River.[3][4]

According to Norman Tindale's calculations, the Marinunggo had roughly 250 square miles (650 km2) of tribal territory around the area of the Dilke Range and running in a northeasterly direction towards the swamplands of the Daly River.[5]
