    First Nations’ Origins in Wallaroo
    (Wadlu Waru)

    The Narangga people were the first people of the Wallaroo region. Their traditional lands extended throughout the Yorke Peninsula in South Australia. In the north, the Kumara clan, the south, the Dilpa, the west, the Wari, and in the east, the Windarra clan. Further information on the Narungga people can be found here. Their numbers were decimated through colonisation and disease. 

    Wallaroo derives from an Indigenous word, ‘Wadlu Waru’ meaning wallabies urine. White colonists originally adapted it to ‘Walla Waroo’ but it was too long to stamp on wool bales so they shortened it to Wallaroo (Family Search Wiki)
