Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use Australian English The Gia people, also known as Giya, Kia, Bumbarra, and variants, are an Aboriginal Australian people of the state of Queensland. Little is known of them.

Language

Шаблон:Main The Gia spoke Giya/Bumbarra, a dialect of the Biri language, belongs to the Proserpine subgroup of the Maric languages.Шаблон:Sfn

AIATSIS, in its AUSTLANG database, assigns a separate code to Ngaro, but its status is shown as unconfirmed, as the only source for it is a wordlist by Norman Tindale.[1]

Country

According to Tindale, the Gias' lands extended over some Шаблон:Convert of land from Bowen to St. Helens and Mount Dalrymple. Inland they reached the Clarke Range. They were present at Proserpine, Gloucester Island, and Repulse Bay.Шаблон:Sfn[2]

Tindale registered this as a distinct tribe, directly south of Port Denison, but this has been questioned by Barker.Шаблон:Sfn

Although Ngaro is given as a synonym for Gia, and vice versa, it appears that the Ngaro people inhabited the Whitsunday Islands.

The Yuwibara people occupied land to their south.

A Traditional Owner Reference Group consisting of representatives of the Yuwibara, Koinmerburra, Barada Barna, Wiri, Ngaro, and those Gia and Juru people whose lands are within Reef Catchments Mackay Whitsunday Isaac region, helps to support natural resource management and look after the cultural heritage sites in the area.[3]

Earliest description
