Description: HDG speaks about the various waterholes belonging to/used by the different clans in the GanbaLtji area (land and sea along the channel between Elcho Island and the Australian mainland) and about the hospitality of the clans towards each other. This story is part of a hugh collection of recordings made of HDG by B. Schebeck (linguist) in 1966.

Date created: 1966

Location

Region: probably recorded in Galiwin'ku, Elcho Island, NT

Project

ID: SG0057

Name: 0139-SG0057

Description: The aim of the project is to produce an annotated and illustrated Golpa story book about the Golpa people, their land and culture. Golpa is a severely endangered YolNGu language (Yirritja moiety) spoken on Elcho Island, Northern Territory, Australia. Most stories in the book are part of a hugh collection of audio recordings made back in the 1960s. The narrator of these texts is the father of today's Golpa speakers/consultants. Until this project these texts have never been processed. There are only very few Golpa left who still speak and/or understand the language to a considerable extend. The processing of these recordings will reveal and document linguistic and cultural knowledge about a dying Australian indigenous group and make it accessible to the community as well as to researchers.This project is the first attempt to document and describe the Golpa language (and culture).
