Daga

Daga is associated with the mountainous interior of southeastern New Guinea, in the region of Milne Bay. A study describes Daga communities as occupying an upland area that also extends toward the coast. Forested ridges and valleys form a varied setting for local routes and settlements.

Daga is also the name of a non-Austronesian language spoken in this part of Papua New Guinea. Its speakers are part of the considerable linguistic diversity of the island, where many neighbouring communities have distinct languages and histories.
