The Ngundjan (Ogh-Undjan) were an indigenous Australian people of the state of Queensland.

The Ngundjan spoke a dialect variety of Kunjen.

Country

The Ngundjan had, in Norman Tindale's estimation, some 4,500 square miles (12,000 km2) of tribal territory around the area of the Mitchell River south of the Palmer River junction. Their inland extension went to Dunbar and southwards as far as Emu Creek and the Red River.[1]
