Description:Ilijili Lamilami talks about travelling from Cape Don to Minjilang in the old days, mentioning favourite hunting places on the mainland which people used to go to in the past, to get ldungun (long yam), iminykal (stingray), manbiri (green sea turtle), mirrijbu kurlajuk (seagull eggs): Some places mentioned are Jamarldinki (Cape Don), Araru, Kamurraki (Black Point), Kurlkurl (Danger Point), Ajakurrang (island).
This project documents, in as full a cultural context as is possible, the Iwaidja language of the Cobourg Peninsula, Northern Territory, Australia (Iwaidjan language family, non-Pama-Nyungan), still spoken by around 200 people but under increasing threat from English, as well as recording material from other languages of the region (Marrgu, Ilgar/ Garig, Amurdak and Manangkari) which are all reduced to one or two speakers each. In addition to linguists, the research team will include specialists in ethnomusicology, material culture / archaeology, and social anthropology, and will result in a comprehensive, searchable and browsable sound and video documentation, with Iwaidja transcriptions and subtitles alongside English translations, an Iwaidja dictionary of around 5,000 words, detailed phonetic analysis, and briefer materials on other languages of the area.
