From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Pongaponga were an
indigenous Australian people of the
Northern Territory . They may have been a band of the
Ngolokwangga .
Norman Tindale estimated their tribal land's extent at about 200 square miles (520 km2 ). They inhabited the area along both banks of the
Daly River somewhat inland from the
Wogait coastal tribe.
