SEVEN BACK FROM WILDERNESS
A group of Aborigines living in the desert in Western Australia, and believed to have been isolated from the outside world for about 20 years, has been founded in the Outback.
The four men, two women and a child were naked and had been living in traditional Aboriginal style without apparently having come into contact even with fellow members of the Wankatja tribe who found them.
Reports about the nomads are still filtering back from a remote out-station to which they were persuaded to go by those who found them. Government Aboriginal Affairs officials and a medical team are on their way to the area.
An official said in Perth that it appeared that the eldest of the group, a man aged about 70, had been uncomfortable about joining even so rudimentary a settlement as an out-station, which usually consists of a borehole and a few huts.
He is reported to have speared one of the women, believed to be his daughter, in the leg, cast off the clothes he had been given, and returned to the desert. No explanation is offered for the attack on the woman.
Five of the group, led by the old man, are said to have broken away from the Wankatjas, a community of about 300 people living at Coonana, roughly 80 miles east of Kalgoorlie, some 20 years ago.
During their roaming in the wilderness there were two births, a young man now aged about 19, and a boy of five, neither of whom has seen a motor vehicle or a white person.
The nomads have been living in one of the world’s harshest environments, the West Australian desert, with only irregular access to water and dependent for survival on killing kangaroos, rabbits and other wild creatures.
Anthropologists believe that in the vastness of the Outback there are probably still Aboriginal communities which have had no contact with the white settlement of Australia. Though it started almost 200 years ago, it is largely confined to the coastline.
In September 1984 one such group, consisting of nine people, emerged from Central Australia, having lived entirely in the never-never region where the boundaries of Western Australia, South Australia and the Northern Territory meet. These people are understood to have since settled on an out-station.
The most immediate concern for the newly-emerged group is health. The medical team on its way to Kunana will be examining them to see whether in the contacts they have had over the past week they may have been exposed to viruses which, though commonplace to urban man, could cause them serious illness, even death.
