The Wadjabangai, otherwise known as Wadjabangayi, were an Aboriginal Australian people of Queensland.

Language

Wadjabangai was closely related to Bidjara.[1]

Country

Norman Tindale estimated Wadjabangai lands at 3,200 square miles (8,300 km2) of sandy plains with ample tree stands. He arrived at this figure by exclusion from the known range of contiguous tribal territories whose domain borders are better known. The Wadjabangai lived in the area south of Lancevale, including Maryvale and as far as Blackall.[2][3]

Alternative names
