Ngabu Bingayi Aboriginal Corp.
Thungutti Tiddas Aboriginal Corp. Ngabu Bingayai Aboriginal Corp.
When first establish Ngabu Bingayi Aboriginal Corporation was formally known as the Thungutti Tiddas Aboriginal Corporation formed in 2003 to support cultural activities based in Bellbrook, which lies at the heart of Dhanggati country.
In 2011 the members decided to open the membership to include Dhanggati men, thus Ngabu elder sister and Bingayi elder brother, and to widen the geographical base to include the Macleay Valley and Dhanggati people who live elsewhere. The new name change took effect from 10th January 2012. It also embraces the writing system developed in the revival process.
Ngabu Bingayi Aboriginal Corp. is the ‘umbrella’ for the Dhanggati Language Group which holds copyright to Lissarrague 2007 and Kelly & Lissarrague 2011. Members of Ngabu Bingayi Aboriginal Corp. have worked closely with linguist Amanda Lissarrague since the mid 1980s when she lived in Bellbrook and began her investigations into Dhanggati language.
