The Wik peoples are an Indigenous Australian group of people from an extensive zone on western Cape York Peninsula in northern Queensland, speaking several different languages. They are from the coastal flood plains bounding the Gulf of Carpentaria lying between Pormpuraaw (Edward River) and Weipa, and inland the forested country drained by the Archer, Kendall and Holroyd rivers. The first ethnographic study of the Wik people was undertaken by the Queensland born anthropologist Ursula McConnel. Her fieldwork focused on groups gathered into the Archer River Mission at what is now known as Aurukun.

  • De Wik zijn feitelijk niet één volk, maar een verzameling van afzonderlijke Aboriginalgroepen in het centrale deel van Kaap York, Australië. Wik betekent “taal” in de talen van deze regio. De naam is door antropologen gekozen om naar de groepen te verwijzen. De groepen zelf hebben de naam pas recent overgenomen om zichzelf te benoemen. (nl)
  • Wik são grupos de povos indígenas australianos moradores de uma extensa zona da Península do Cabo York, no norte de Queensland, pertencentes de vários grupos linguísticos diferentes. O termo Wik vem desta região e significa linguagem. O nome Wik se tornou praticamente um marco na Austrália após uma decisão do governo australiano em 1996 em favorecimento dos povos Wik. (pt)
