Canberra is the host city for the Encounters exhibition. It is also country that has been home to Ngunnawal, Ngunawal and Ngambri peoples for more than 20,000 years. Some of their stone tools from Canberra's Mount Ainslie are now in the collection of the British Museum. One of these, a stone scraper, travelled from Mount Ainslie to London and The Ngunnawal (Ngunawal) and Ngambri peoples are the indigenous people of the Canberra region and its first inhabitants, having lived in the region for over 20,000 years. The neighbouring peoples are the Gundungurra to the north, the Ngarigo to the south, the Yuin on the coast, and the Wiradjuri inland. Within the Ngunnawal tribe there are seven clans who lived in specific localities in the Ngunnawal. Ngunnawal, Reconciliation Place, Parkes. Photographed by Martin Ollman.

Ngunnawal and Gundungurra are Australian Aboriginal languages from the Pama-Nyungan family, the traditional languages of the Ngunnawal and Gandangara peoples respectively. The two varieties are very closely related, being considered dialects of the one (unnamed) language, in the technical, linguistic sense of those terms. Celebrate First Nations culture. With a rich history dating back over 20,000 years, the capital region is steeped in culture.
