Wiradjuri Mob Condobolin Lachlan river people 

The Mission we came off is called Willow Bend - about 470 kms from Sydney.  Known as the people of the three rivers, Wiradjuri people have inhabited modern-day New South Wales, Australia for at least 60,000 years. 

At the time of European colonization, there were an estimated 3,000 Wiradjuri living in the region, representing the largest cultural footprint in the state. Our country extends from the Great Dividing Range in the east, and is bordered by the Macquarie, Lachlan and Murrumbidgee rivers. The Wiradjuri nation is the largest cultural footprint in NSW and second largest geographically in Australia.

The Wiradjuri people were a huntergatherer society, made up of small clans or family groups whose movements followed seasonal food gathering and ritual patterns.

Today, major Wiradjuri populations can be found in rural and remote and throughout larger regional areas such as Bathurst, Dubbo, Orange, Lithgow and down to Wagga Wagga in the south.

 Condobolin is the home of the Kalarie people, lower Lachlan region, and is considered by other Wiradjuri communities to be the heart beat of the Wiradjuri nation.
