Nedebang is a Papuan language spoken in the villages of Balungada and Baulang in the eastern district of Pantar island in the Alor archipelago of Indonesia.
[2][3] There are also Nedebang speakers in Air Panas, administratively part of Balungada but located 1 km from the main village.
The former refers to an ancestral village located on a ridge above the area in which the speakers now reside.
With the exception of Air Panas, the people of Balungada are Christian, and most residents are of Klamu descent.
In contrast, the villages of Baulang and Air Panas are Islamic and contain significant populations of Austronesian-speakers who have migrated from Baranusa.
