==History of contact==
According to oral traditions handed down by the Bailgu, before the advent of the whites, they were dislocated from the [[salt marsh]]s on the Fortescue river by pressure from the [[Panyjima people|Panyjima]] tribe, which drove them further east. This narrative appears to be corroborated by the fact that among western tribes they were known as the ''Mangguldulkara''(people of the marshes).{{sfn|Tindale|1974|p=239}}
