The Bugulmara were an indigenous Australian people of the state of Queensland.
The Bugulmara were indigenous to the area near Croydon, in the vicinity of which they have been estimated to have had some 3,000 square miles (7,800 km2) of territory. To their south were the Maikulan, with whom they shared strong ties. [1]
The Bugulmara were quickly dispossessed of their lands following the mining boom that took place when gold was discovered in the area. [1]
The Wik peoples are an Indigenous Australian group of people from an extensive zone on western Cape York Peninsula in northern Queensland, speaking several different languages. They are from the coastal flood plains bounding the Gulf of Carpentaria lying between Pormpuraaw and Weipa, and inland the forested country drained by the Archer, Kendall and Holroyd rivers. The first ethnographic study of the Wik people was undertaken by the Queensland born anthropologist Ursula McConnel. Her fieldwork focused on groups gathered into the Archer River Mission at what is now known as Aurukun.
