The History of The Yidinji Language
The Yindinji people represented one of the largest Indigenous tribes of the Cairns area.
Yindinji is a nearly extinct Australian Aboriginal language, spoken by the Yindinji tribe of northern Queensland.
There are approximately 150 native speakers of the Yindinji Language.
The Yindinji Yabanday, or tribal lands, covered a large area of Queensland, from the Barron River in the north, to the Russell River in the south; from the Murray Prior Range in the east, to Tolga in the west. Today, some Yindinji people, like many other Indigenous Australians, continue to live as their ancestors did.
