Yued (also spelt Juat, Yuat and Juet) is a region inhabited by the Yued people, one of the fourteen groups of Noongar Aboriginal Australians who have lived in the South West corner of Western Australia for approximately 40,000 years.[1]
European settlers first visited the Yued region in the 17th century, but it was not colonised until George Fletcher Moore’s visit in 1836.[2][3] In 1846 Spanish Benedictine Monk, Rosendo Salvado created a Catholic missionary institution housing some Yued people, which became New Norcia, the only monastic town in Australia.[4] Later impacts of European colonisation include the introduction of governmental assimilation policies such as the Aborigines Act 1905 which prompted the creation of settlement and internment camps like the Moore River Settlement, contributing to diseases within the Yued population as well as their displacement from the region.[4][5]
There are ongoing projects to preserve Yued culture including the establishment of native titles, heritage plans and active cultural community programmes.[6][7]
