We the Yolŋu people, in all our different
groups, have many languages and many lands. Our larger townships are Milingimbi, Ramingining, Galiwin'ku, Gapuwiyak and Yirrkala. There are also many other small homelands. It was at the beginning of time that the creating ancestors walked over the country, putting the groups of Yolŋu peoples in place, creating our lands, languages, ancestral songs, ceremonies, and sacred law. |
