The Otati, or Wutati, were an Indigenous Australian people of central and eastern Cape York Peninsula in northern Queensland, according to Norman Tindale,{{sfn|Tindale|1974|p=184}} though the ethnonym may designate the same people as the Wuthathi.

Language

A list of some 400 words of the Otati language was taken down by Charles Gabriel Seligman, and a further 60 by George Pimm, members of Cambridge Anthropological Expedition to Torres Straits in the late 19th century.{{sfn|Seligman|Pimm|2011|pp=277–282}}

Country

Donald Thomson places the Otati on the coast south of Oxford Bay down to Margaret Bay.{{sfn|Thomson|1933|p=455}} Norman Tindale stated that the Otati dwelt in their traditional lands, measuring roughly 300 sq. miles, which extended from the southern part of Shelburne Bay, east and south to the Macmillan River, inland as far as the headwaters of the Dulhunty River.{{sfn|Tindale|1974}} Tindale's distinction of the Otati with the Mutjati is not accepted by AIATSIS, which regards the two as variants of the one name.

Lifestyle and economy

The Otati were one of the Kawadji, or sandbeach people, like the Pakadji, Olkola and others, who lived along the coast facing the Coral Sea and fished for food in the rivers and ocean.{{sfn|Thomson|1933|p=458}}

Alternative names

  • Wotati
  • Wutati
  • Wotadi
  • Wudjadi. {{sfn|Tindale|1974|p=184}}
