TheNgameni are anindigenous Australian people ofSouth Australia who once spoke theNgameni language.
According toNorman Tindale's estimation, the Ngameni held 6,000 square miles (16,000 km2) of tribal territory, along the southern edge ofGoyder Lagoon, and on theWarburton River, and Lakes Howitt and Berlino. The northern reach extended toPandipandi and, over the border into what is now southwest Queensland, the area south ofBirdsville and Miranda.[1]
Both circumcision andsubincision were integral parts of Ngameni rites ofinitiation.[1]
