Location
Australia
Ernest Henry is located near the Cloncurry River where the Traditional Owners of the land, the Mitakoodi, survived for thousands of years, hunting, fishing, camping and gathering food.
The site was grateful to receive a painting from local Mayi-Thakurti (Mitakoodi) elder Ron (Hombre) Major. The painting is displayed at the main reception for visitors and employees to enjoy. The stunning painting represents all Mayi clans, watering holes, meeting places, native foods, flora and fauna of the area. Mitakoodi share the same language with five other Mayi clans including Wannamarra, Ngawan, Mayi-Yappi, Mayi-Kulan and Mayi-Kutuna.
The Ernest Henry team is proactively planning to strengthen their First Nations connections.
