Despite there being many different Aboriginal tribes throughout Australia, only 2.5% of the Australian population (as of 30th June, 2006) is Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander. The groups found in the Towsville area are the Bindal and Wulgurukaba peoples.
The traditional custodians speak the Birrigubba language. An important symbol for the Bindal people is a shooting star because they believe that the place or direction indicated danger from that direction. The Binal people call their country Thul Garrie Waja.
the Wulgurukaba people call their country Currumbilbarra. It means canoe people and important symbol for them is the carpet snake.
