Gumbaynggirr people
The Gumbaynggirr people are an Indigenous Australian group native to the mid-north coast of New South Wales. They have a rich cultural heritage, including distinct language, traditions, and spiritual beliefs tied closely to their land and environment. Historically, they lived as hunters, gatherers, and fishers, with a deep connection to the coast and rainforests. Today, the Gumbaynggirr continue to preserve their culture through language revival, ceremonies, and storytelling, contributing to Australia's diverse Indigenous history and ongoing efforts for cultural recognition and pride.
