W. Williams, Eyre's Sandpatch

Wonunda Meening Tribe. Wonnunda = Eyre's Sandpatch.

According to W. Graham the country of this tribe commences at Point Culver, extends east along the coast for about 140 miles and inland some 30 or 40. Wonunda is the name of the principal water. From Point Culver to 100 miles east of Eucla - a distance of 350 miles - all the tribes use the word Meening (people) Mining groups do not go just Border (W.A.-S.A.) on Nullarbor Plain nunga means man. In the Eucla & western areas Mining means man. North of Eucla. Boundary Dam, Waddi means man. n.w. of Eucla - mulba means man. etc etc. in conjunction with the name of the principal swamp or waterhole in their country as their tribal designation. The tribes immediately to the west of the Wonunda Meening speak of the latter as Bardooks or "know nothings". The Wonunda speak of the tribes to the north of them as katabungata and mooroon, the last word meaning fat or stout. Those to the West are koorardee or tall. The country of the Wonunda is little better than a waterless desert and its inhabitants are half starved, spare in person, low in stature, and use weapons and implements of an inferior sort.

Helms obtained the following vocabulary from several natives met near the Fraser Range. They inhabited the districts to the east and west of that locality and to the south about 100 miles from the coast. Habits and language were essentially the same with all the tribes, but in some instances different terms were applied for the same object.
