 Wagiman is the ancestral language of the Wagiman people, Aboriginal Australians whose traditional land, before colonisation, extended for hundreds of square kilometres from the Stuart Highway, throughout the Mid-Daly Basin, and across the Daly River.The land is highly fertile and well-watered, and contains a number of cattle stations, on which many members of the ethnic group used to work.These stations include Claravale, Dorisvale, Jindare, Oolloo and Douglas.
