The Kaytetye, otherwise written Kaititya, and pronounced kay-ditch,{{sfn|Koch|Koch|1993|p=vii}} are an Indigenous Australian people who live around Barrow Creek and Tennant Creek in the Northern Territory. Their neighbours to the east are the Alyawarre, to the south the Anmatyerre, to the west the Warlpiri, and to the north the Warumungu. Kaytetye country is dissected by the Stuart Highway. LanguageThe Kaytetye language, belongs to the Arandic subgroup of the Pama-Nyungan languages.{{sfn|Koch|2011|p=441}} It is considered to be a threatened language. A sophisticated form of sign language is also used by some Kaytetye. CountryIn Norman Tindale's estimation the Kaytetye's traditional lands extended over roughly {{convert|12,500|mi2|km2}}, to the southeast of Tennant Creek, taking in Elkedra, Gastrolobium Creek, the Frew River, Whistleduck Creek, the headwaters of the Elkedra River, the Davenport and Murchison Ranges, together with Mount Singleton. Their northern frontier was roughly 5 miles north of Kelly Well, while the southern boundary was close to Mount Octy. To the west they extended into the sandy desert area east of Hanson. They were present on Taylor and Barrow creeks, and at the Forster Range.{{sfn|Tindale|1974|p=228}} Social organizationThe Kaitetye, like the Anmatyerre, have an Aranda-type eight subsection system. History of contactEuropean penetration of Kaytetye country began with John Stuart's early explorations from 1860 onwards{{sfn|Henty-Gebert|2005|p=vi}} and his subsequent survey of the area for the purposes of installing an Overland Telegraph.{{sfn|Koch|Koch|1993|p=xiv}} The two cultures did not initially integrate peacefully. In 1874, European settlers stationed at the Barrow Creek telegraph station are said to have infringed tribal laws regarding either sacred sites or women, and in reprisal Kaytetye men attacked the station, killing two whites. This sparked revenge killings by constables and settlers, who, acting in line with an inspector's suggestion that, "the close adherence to legal forms should not be insisted upon,"{{sfn|Hill|2002|p=50}}{{sfn|Koch|Koch|1993|p=xv}} carried out a savage series of retaliatory killings that decimated the Kaitetye, though affecting contiguous tribes as well. Official reports say only two Aboriginals were killed. Unofficial figures suggest the numbers went as high as 50-90, with some make an overall estimate of hundreds.{{sfn|Henty-Gebert|2005|p=vi}} The bones of Kaitetye people slaughtered in one such raid at the time, at Skull Creek, were visible for decades afterwards.{{sfn|Hill|2002|p=50}} After the 1890s Kaytetye confrontations with whites became rarer.{{sfn|Koch|Koch|1993|p=xvii}} Later, in the widely known Coniston massacre of 1928, a series of three punitive raids occurred over a number of weeks as a police party of 8 men under Mounted Police Constable George Murray killed, according to a later inquiry, at least 31 Kaytetye, Warlpiri and Anmatyerre indiscriminately, though native oral records suggest a higher figure.{{sfn|Allen|2015|p=115}} Kaytetye people worked alongside European settlers for years to come in pastoral and mining capacities but were not treated equally until the period of World War 2 in which an army settlement was established near Barrow Creek.{{sfn|Berndt|Berndt|1987|p=177}} Many Kaytetye men and women were employed and were treated fairly for the first time, making it difficult for pastoral stations to keep their Indigenous workers on the station. This forced a change the way Kaytetye pastoral workers were treated.[1] Both the mining employment and the army settlement were temporary engagements, leaving the Kaytetye only pastoral work if they desired to stay in their country. Kaytetye call the area around Barrow Creek Thangkenharenge which includes the site of their creation story at Elkerempelkere.{{sfn|Koch|Koch|1993|p=1}}{{sfn|Turpin/Thompson|2003|pp=3–5}} Traditionally, the Kaytetye people maintain their connection to the sacred sites like Elkerempelkere. The Devils Marbles, which the Kaytetye call Karlu Karlu, are located on a sacred Dreaming site. The Kaytetye believe the boulders are the eggs of the rainbow serpent, who passed through the area in the Dreamtime.{{Dubious|date=June 2010}} Alternative names
