Anguthimri (Jupangati,Angadimi) is anextinctPaman language formerly spoken on theCape York Peninsula ofQueensland,Australia, by theAnguthimri people who lived in the area from the mouth of theMission River north toPennefather River and west toDuyfken Point.[1][2] It is unknown when it became extinct.[3]
The nameAnguthimri is not a synonym ofAwngthim, though due to their similarity they have sometimes been confused.[4] There were several groups speaking Anguthimri or similar dialects, including the Tjungundji, Yupungathi,Mpakwithi, and Wimaranga.[1][2] The Yupungathi language region included the western side of Cape York between Janie Creek and the Pennefather River andWeipa.[5] Tjungundji was traditionally spoken in the region of the Batavia River, Cullen Point, and Janie Creek; and then later, following removals, spoken in theNorthern Peninsula Area Region, near New Mapoon,Injinoo, and Cowal Creek communities.[6]
