The Ardi’ol Logo
Ardi’ol is a clan group of the Bardi tribe. It covers the areas of Ardyaloon Community, from Baninygoon (West) to Lirramarr (North).
The logo is our family’s traditional design carved on a pearl shell, this is called a ‘Riji’. It was handed down to our family over 100 years ago, and is six generations old. We still use it in our traditional ceremonies today, as it represents who we are.
Location
Ardyaloon (One Arm Point) is an Aboriginal Australian community town on the Dampier Peninsula, located in the Kimberley region of Western Australia.
