The Nyuwathayi (Njuwathai) were an indigenous Australian people of the Cape York Peninsula of Queensland. They may have spoken the Yinwum language, based on their location, but there is no data. [1]
The extent of Nyuwathai lands has been estimated to encompass some 700 square miles (1,800 km2), primarily around the middle Wenlock River. [2]
By the time Ursula McConnel did her ethnographic surveys in the late 1920s and 1930s, it appeared that the Nyuwathai gathered with the Atjinuri and Yinwum at the Moreton Telegraph Station. [3]
