		The town of Maningrida, on the west bank of the mouth of the Liverpool River, derives its name from a local place-name meaning ‘the place where the Dreaming changes shape’ (Carew et al 1996a).
		In per capita terms, Maningrida is perhaps the most multilingual community in the world (Carew et al 1996b), with most people speaking or understanding four or more of the fifteen languages from the region: Ndjebbana, Eastern Kunwinjku, Kune, Rembarrnga, Dangbon/Dalabon, Nakkara, Gurrgoni, Djinang, Wurlaki, Ganalpingu, Gupapuyngu, Kunbarlang, Gun-nartpa, Burarra and English (Carew et al 1996b).
		Hiatt’s (p.15) observation, that ‘degrees of open-handeness bear a rough correspondence to degrees of relateness’, differs from Sansom’s descriptions of ‘performative kinship’ and a service economy, but corresponds with the ethic of sharing in the fringe camps where the membership is drawn from related, though wide-ranging groups.
