Indigenous people of the Pilbara region of Western Australia

See also: Djiwarli language

The Djiwarli, also written Jiwarli, are an Aboriginal Australian people of the Pilbara region of Western Australia.

## Language

[edit]

The Jiwarli speak one of four dialects of Mantharta, the other members of the dialect continuum being the Thiin, Warriyangka and Tharrkari.[1]

## Country

[edit]

In Norman Tindale's estimation the Dyiwali's lands extended over 1,700 square miles (4,400 km2), taking in the headwaters of Henry and Yannarie rivers, and running southeast from Mt Hamlet and Mt Florry as far as the Lyons River. Their northeastern reaches touched only as far as the Ashburton River divide.[2]
