That peninsula has a name, you know.

…I mean, I couldn’t say it off the top of my head, but it does have a name!

(it’s the Cape York Peninsula, apparently. Apparently the population there is still 60% Indigenous, and they’ve successfully won native title rights to 45% of the land. The peninsula is largely coterminous with the traditional extent of the Paman languages, one of the two main branches of Pama-Nyungan, the largest language family in Australia — and among the Paman languages is Guugu Yimithirr, the language the word “kangaroo” is from. The Cape York Peninsula is also home to a number of Indigenous sign languages, and there is even a dialect of Auslan heavily borrowing from these, spoken by Deaf Indigenous people on the peninsula. Way cool!)
