Krauatungalang

The Krauatungalung are an Indigenous Australian people, of East Gippsland, in the state of Victoria, Australia.

They are regarded as a group of the Kurnai, though Tindale states that their inclusion as one of the Gunai is artificial.

[1] According to Alfred William Howitt the ethnonym Krauatungalung is composed of krauat (east) and -galung, a suffix meaning 'of'/'belonging to'.

[2] The name they referred to themselves by is Mukdhang, meaning 'good (mak) speech' (ðang).

The Krauatungalung country traditionally encompassed 5,700 square kilometres (2,200 sq mi) of tribal territory, from Cape Everard (Point Hicks) to Lakes Entrance.
