Wadere
The Wadere were an indigenous Australian people of the Northern Territory.
Country
The Wadere inhabited an area along the Gulf of Carpentaria, calculated by Tindale as stretching over an area of some 2,400 square miles (6,200 km2), from north of Batten Creek to the Limmen Bight River and reaching inland as far as Barrkuwirriji (the Four Archers).,[a][2] Their borders with the Marra were at the Valley of Springs.[3]

Notes
