Country[]

Norman Tindale calculated Kunja lands as having spread over some 12,000 square miles (31,000 km2) of territory Warrego River from Cunnamulla north to Augathella and Burenda. Their western extension lay somewhere between Cooladdi and Cheepie. Their eastern boundary lay at the present day Morven and Angellala Creek. Charleville was on Kunja land.[1]
