Namultja Aboriginal Corporation represents the interests of Marra peoples whose Country includes land and sea covering an area of about 25,300 km2. The land parts of Marra Country stretch from the Gulf of Carpentaria between the Roper River in the north to Rosie Creek in the south, and inland to the headwaters of the Cox and Towns rivers. Marra Country includes rivers, tidal flats, creeks and other freshwater places, plateaus, rocky areas and gorges, and low hills and plains. The sea includes the open sea, currents, islands and reefs.

While Marra Country covers both land and sea, Marra peoples identify as ‘saltwater people’ and are intrinsically connected to the sea which shapes their cultural identity. Sea Country includes Kurrulinya (Maria Island) and Yumunguni (Beatrice Island), and their reefs. The songlines of the Marra peoples are recorded to extend 50 kms offshore and many Marra songlines traverse the sea floor and water column.

Marra peoples have management relationships and responsibilities with the NT Limmen Bight Marine Park and the offshore Commonwealth Limmen Marine Park. Marra peoples share responsibility for Ngalakan Country and Wilangarra Country with our neighbours.

Namultja Aboriginal Corporation aims to develop opportunities for Country and people. Membership of the organisation is clan affiliated, and the board is made up of 3 elected members from each of the Marra clans.
