Rakaya

The Rakkaia were an indigenous Australian tribe of the state of Queensland.

Country

The Rakkaia are estimated by Norman Tindale to have had, within their tribal domains, some 2,200 square miles (5,700 km2) of territory, stretching westwards from Coorabulka as far as the Georgina River, and the eastern vicinity of Breadalbane.[1]
