Kokangol

The Kokangol (Koko-Gol), or Yuwula, are said to have been an Indigenous Australian people of Queensland. Some dispute this, suggesting the name may be a synonym for Aghu Tharnggala, or may simply be the name of a language consultant.[1]

Country

[edit]

The Kokangol were, in Norman Tindale's estimation, a distinct people from their neighbours, the Olkola, and lived on the Upper Alice River. Their territory extended over some 1,800 sq-miles,[2] and they lived inland from the Yir-Yoront.[3]

People

[edit]

The original population was estimated in 1897 to be around 600 people.[2] There are very few explicit references to these people, apart from William Parry-Okeden 's report and passing mention in a volume on Queensland aboriginal rock-art by Percy Trezise and Dick Roughsey.[4][5][2]
