Country

Norman Tindale in his 1974 catalogue of Australian Aboriginal boundaries describes the Thua country and associated estates as follows [ [http://www.samuseum.australia.sa.com/tindaletribes/thaua.htm Tindale, Norman (1974) "Thaua" in his "Catalogue of Australian Aboriginal Tribes". South Australian Museum.] Accessed 9 June 2008 ] :

"From north of Merimbula south to Green Cape; west to the scarp of the Dividing Range. Their hordes were divided into two groups, the ['Katungal] 'sea coast people,' and the ['Baianbal] or ['Paienbara] , the 'tomahawk people,' those who lived in the forests; a third group, the Bemerigal or mountain people at Cooma belonged to the Ngarigo with whom the inland Thaua had some associations."
