Boodjar Nyungar Placenames

Boodjar Nyungar Placenames is an online resource of Western Australian Nyungar aboriginal place names.

It is the result of a research project into place names in the Southwest Western Australia region in which Nyungar have traditional associations.

The use of Boodjar as part of the project relates to the Nyungar word for their country. Smaller areas in the larger area also have the word used.[1][2][3]
