Madngella

The Madngella, otherwise known as the Malak-Malak, are an indigenous Australian people of the Northern Territory, Australia.

The Madngella lived traditionally in the middle and lower reaches of the Daly River nearby to the Mulluk-Mulluk people.

In the merbok system of ceremonial exchange, the Madngella used the words in a way that indicated the coastal provenance of the articles (ninymer) exchanged, north-easterly and south-westerly.Medrdokfrom the former direction was calledpork padaka, as opposed to the south-westerly merbok, callednim berinken,whereberinken is a generic term used of tribe(s) living south-west of the Madngella.

The Madngella tribe had experienced intense culture shock in the wake of white settlement, whose effects over 50 years, according to who studied them in the early 1930s, had been to disintegrate many of their attachments to the traditional way of life.
