The Gayiri, people, also spelt or known as Kairi, Kararya, Kari, Khararya and Kaira, Bimurraburra, Gahrarja, Gara Gara, Ara Ara, and Kara Kara, [1] are an Aboriginal Australian people of the state of Queensland.
According to an estimation made by Norman Tindale, the Kairi held sway over some 5,900 square miles (15,000 km2) of territory, from the Great Dividing Range south of Springsure [lower-alpha 1] north to Capella. The Drummond Range formed their western frontier, while their eastern boundaries were drawn by the Comet and upper Mackenzie (Nogoa) rivers. [3]
The Kairi were divided into hordes, the name of at least one of which is known.
