The Nokaan dwelt on the plateau west of the
Murchison, at least as far south from Curbur to Yallalong and Coolcalaya. Their inland extension to the south went close to
Northampton. According to
Norman Tindale, who estimated their lands as embracing about of territory, they pushed into the coastal strip only relatively recently after the onset of contact with white settlers. Running clock-wise from north, their neighbours were the
Malgana,
Watjarri,
Widi, then the
Amangu south, and the
Nanda directly east. ==Alternative names==
