We derive our traditional connection to country through cognatic descent, a commonly shared deep spirituality and affinity with our homeland and recognition of our social belonging. Our laws and customs derive from a broader culture, described variously as ‘Gunggari’, ‘Kogai’, ‘Unggari’ or ‘Gnorree’, whose members spoke dialects closely related to the one language known as Gunggari.
