South Australian Museum holds biological collections from parasites to whales. Museum leads global opal and copper research. Wenamba Pintubi live south and claim distinct tribe status. They speak dialect of Kukatja called Wankawinan by Pitjandjara. Northwestern Pintubi hordes call themselves Kolo. Kolo view Mangaii as distant northern trade route on Ngardi lands. 1932 University of Adelaide films document these people.
