The Kunggara, also known as Kuritjara, are an indigenous Australian people of the southern Cape York Peninsula in Queensland.
Language
The Kunggara spoke Gurdjar, which had two dialects, Gunggara and Rip. Gavan Breen did a salvage study of the language, drawing on information obtained during an interview with one of the last speakers, Elsie McKillop, conducted at Bloodwood.[citation needed]
Country
In Norman Tindale's estimation, the Kunggara's tribal territory covered some 1,900 square miles (4,900 km2), centered on theStaaten River and running south to the Smithburne River and Delta Downs. The limits of their inland extension lay around Stirling and Lotus Vale.[1]
