Wardandi (WA)
| Location | From Bunbury to Cape Leeuwin, chiefly along the coast; at Geographe Bay, the vicinity of Nannup and Busselton. According to one informant, the tribal name is linked with the ['wardan] or crow, but the name given in vocabularies for crow is ['kwa:kum]. They were also called the 'seacoast people,' and the detailed Nina Layman MS gives 'werdandie' also 'wartine' as meaning 'the sea.' In yet another version it is a derivative of the negative term. |
