Gadjalivia
The Gadjalivia were an indigenous Australian people of Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory. They are now regarded as extinct.
Language
Arthur Capell classified the Gadjalivia language (Gudjälavia) as a dialect of Burarra.[1]
Country
Norman Tindale estimated that their lands encompassed some 200 square miles (520 km2),[2] inland to the west of the Blyth River.[3]
History
Following a drastic reduction in their numbers, remnants of the tribe, surviving around the Csdell River, are said to have been assimilated into the Nagara.[2]

gollark: Hmm, maybe ABR could be more transparent by creating fake users for discord side people.
gollark: I did click it. I just didn't pay much attention. Anyway, that's good, and it means we can enjoy a vast proliferation of fake servers or something.
