Yorta Yorta Nation

The Yorta Yorta Nation is an Indigenous Australian group located in the regions surrounding the Goulburn and Murray Rivers, primarily in northern Victoria and southern New South Wales. They have a rich cultural heritage, including a deep connection to the land, traditional customs, and languages. The Yorta Yorta people are recognized for their ongoing efforts to preserve their culture and rights, especially regarding land ownership and management. In the late 20th century, they gained national attention for their legal battles to reclaim their traditional lands and assert their rights as one of Australia's First Nations peoples.
