AbstractHistoryArchive Description

A story about a young girl called Nanji and a young boy called Nguandi and how a long time ago, in the Great Sandy Region of South East Queensland in a place called Undumbi, this couple lived. As they both matured they became increasingly fond of each other and did not want to be separated. According to Aboriginal Law, Nanji was promised to one of the tribal elders as a wife, and the time was fast approaching when she was supposed to be married.
