Summary

The population sizes of Australian Aboriginal language-affiliated groups that can be reconstructed for the period of initial British colonization vary enormously. To establish this range with more precision than has been done in the past, here I analyse those cases in which the number of constituent estate-holding groups per language-territorial group has been recorded (see Appendix).
