Aboriginal languages of South Australia.Шаблон:Efn

The Barngarla, formerly known as Parnkalla and also known as Pangkala, are an Indigenous people of South Australia and the traditional owners of much of Eyre Peninsula.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn Their language, Barngarla is a Yura language and part of a revival effort by the University of Adelaide.

Their traditional land encompassed much of the upper Eyre peninsula, including Port Lincoln, Whyalla and the lands west of Port Augusta. The Barngarla people traditionally lived by the coast and visited inland seasonally and for ceremonial and special purposes. The Barngarla native title claim compromises 44,481 square km, or about two-thirds of the Eyre peninsula. In 2015 this claim was upheld and in 2023 the barngarla people won a federal court decision to prevent a nuclear waste disposal facility from being built on their land.

Barngarla people traditionally wore cloaks made from kangaroo skin and mainly hunted for seafood, but also caught kangaroo, emu, snakes and various lizards depending on seasonality. Nondo beans (thought to be Acacia sophorae seeds ) and pigface (carpobrotus modestus) were especially prized food items. a book entitled Wardlada Mardinidhi documents the location and names of barngarla medical plants.

Barngarla Dreaming is heavily centred on a large mythic complex known as the Seven Sisters. The primary male spiritual figure in that narrative is named Yulanya from which the Uley, Yeelanna, Yallunda Flat, along with the smaller localities of Yallunna, Yulina, and Palanna Fountain on the Eyre Peninsula derive their names.

A practice known as "singing to the sharks" was an important ritual in Barngarla culture. The performance consisted of men lining the cliffs of bays in the Eyre peninsula and singing out, while their chants were accompanied by women dancing on the beach. The aim was to enlist sharks and dolphins in driving shoals of fish towards the shore where fishers in the shallows could make their catch.Шаблон:Sfn

Just prior to colonisation, the Barngarla were under pressure from the Kokatha, who were on the move southwards, forcing the Barngarla to retreat from their traditional northern boundaries. One effect was to cut off their access to certain woods used in spear-making, so that they finally had to forage as far as Tumby Bay to get supplies of whipstick mallee ash.Шаблон:Sfn

The barngarla and Nauo people were engaged in more clashes with European settlers then any other people in South Australia following the colonisation of the state. During the decade following the establishment of Port Lincoln in 1839 the barngarla attacked pastoral stations with local settlers conducting vigilante killings and police retaliating indiscriminately. This undeclared war between white sellers and the barngarla people continued until at least 1862. Barngarla people are one of the many indigenous groups which contain an oral-history of the Waterloo Bay massacre, where up to 260 Barngarla, Nauo, Kokatha and Wirangu may have been driven off cliffs into the sea.

In 1850 both the Barngarla School, operated by Clamor Wilhelm Schürmann, and the first Anglican mission were set up at Poonindie on the Tod River within barngarla land. Living conditions at Pooninidie were basic with no running water, over-crowding and a lack of food and medicine. In 1894 the mission had closed and the majority of residents were moved onto Point Pearce and Point McLeay missions, although some stayed on their land. The barngarla community was deeply affected by the Aborigines Act 1911 which lead to the Stolen Generations and the loss of Barngarla as a first language.

Language

Шаблон:Main Barngarla was the dominant language of the eyre peninsula prior to European settlement. the last fluent speaker was reported to have died in the 1960s.Шаблон:Sfn although some barngarla members of the Stolen Generation retained knowledge of their language through lyrics in songs

Israeli linguist Professor Ghil'ad Zuckermann contacted the Barngarla community in 2011 proposing to revive it, the project of reclamation being accepted enthusiastically by people of Barngarla descent. Workshops to this end were started in Port Lincoln, Whyalla and Port Augusta in 2012.Шаблон:Sfn The reclamation is based on 170-year-old documents.Шаблон:Sfn

Country

In Tindale's estimation, the Barngarla's traditional lands covered some Шаблон:Convert, around the eastern side of Lake Torrens south of Edeowie and west of Hookina and Port Augusta. The western reaches extended as far as Island Lagoon and Yardea. Woorakimba, Hesso, Yudnapinna, and the Gawler Ranges are formed part of Barngarla lands. The southern frontier lay around Kimba, Darke Peak, Cleve, and Franklin Harbour.Шаблон:Sfn

Social organisation

The Barngarla had two tribal divisions: the northern Wartabanggala ranged from north of Port Augusta to Ogden Hill and the vicinity of Quorn and Beltana; a southern branch, the Malkaripangala, lived down the western side of the Spencer Gulf.Шаблон:Sfn Referred to as Pangkala, the Barngala have also been included in the grouping currently known as the Adnyamathanha people.

In 1844 the missionary C. W. Schürmann stated that the Barngarla were divided into two classes, the Mattiri and Karraru.Шаблон:Sfn This was criticized by the ethnographer R. H. Mathews, who, surveying South Australian tribes, argued that Schürmann had mixed them up, and that the proper divisions, which he called phratries shared by all these tribes was as follows:Шаблон:Sfn

Phratry	Husband	Wife	Offspring
A	Kirrarroo	Matturri	Matturri
B	Matturri	Kirraroo	Kirraroo

The Barngarla practised both circumcision and subincision.Шаблон:Sfn

Barngarla native title

On 22 January 2015 the Barngarla people were granted native title over much of Eyre Peninsula. They had applied for Шаблон:Convert and received most of it.Шаблон:EfnШаблон:Sfn

On 24 September 2021 they were granted native title over the city of Port Augusta, after a protracted 25-year old battle. Justice Natalie Charlesworth presided over the sitting.
