Wik Iyanh

The Wikianji (Wik Iyanh) were an indigenous Australian tribe of the Cape York Peninsula of northern Queensland.

Country

Their territory embraced an area of some 600 square miles (1,600 km2) around the middle section of the Holroyd River.[1]

Social structure

The Wikianji were a relatively small tribe, believed to be related to the Wik-Mungkan from whom they may have at the time of early colonial exploration just splintered off, and in the process of becoming a separate tribe.[1]

Alternative names
  • Wikianyi
  • Wik-Iyena.[1]
