Umidan

The Umiida, also written Umida or Umede, were an Aboriginal Australian people of the Kimberley region of north Western Australia, living on the coast and islands north of the Warrwa around the Meda River. They spoke a western dialect of Worrorra, one of the Worrorran languages.

A nomadic rafter people, they harvested the maritime resources of the islands off their shore with the neighbouring Djaui and Unggarranggu, sailing rafts built from mangrove timber. The first European ship to reach their coastal waters was the Cygnet, when William Dampier explored the adjoining King Sound in 1688.
