Location: Headwaters of Auburn River and Redbank Creek; north to Walloon and Camboon and on the ranges east of Dawson River; eastern boundary near Eidsvold. Omitted in error from my 1940 work. Mathews (1910) included the tribal territory in his 'Wakka' language area (see other notes under Koreng-goreng). The reduplicated form of the name, shown below, was on a manuscript map that originated with L P Winterbotham.
