Before and since European contact the Najig and Guyanggan Nganawirdbird groups have remained in Mataranka and surrounding communities on Elsey station, at Jilkminggan and throughout the Roper Valley. Their attachment to country through residence, spiritual life, ceremony, site protection and use of resources remains strong. Processes of change are recognised but are not seen by them to contradict their view of the constancy of the totemic landscape and their connection to it.
