The Wadjiga people, also known as Wadja, Maudalgo, Wadjainggo, and other variants, were an Aboriginal Australian people of inland eastern Queensland.
Wadja tribal lands covered some 8,500 square kilometres (3,300 sq mi) along the streams flowing along the eastern side of the Expedition Range. Their southern boundaries reached as far as Bigge Range. To the east they ran to the vicinity of the Dawson River.[1] They were the Indigenous inhabitants of Woorabinda.[1]
According to traditional lore, the Wadjiga arose from a confluence of two distinct tribes, namely the Wainjigo and the Wadja. Long cohabitation over the same tribal grounds led to the effective amalgamation of their separate identities and customs.[1] Norman Tindale
The Wajigu language is a dialect of the Bidjara language group.[2]
