As punishment for an act of sacrilege by the neighbouring southern Arrernte people.
The massacre of Running Waters was the killing of 80 to 100 Arrernte (formerly known as Aranda) men, women and children of the Southern Aranda language group[1] of Aboriginal Australians by a raiding party of 50 to 60 Matuntara warriors[2] in 1875. The massacre took place at Irbmangkara, a permanent water stretch of the Finke River about 200 kilometres (120 mi) south-west of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory of Australia.
The Matuntara planned the attack as a punishment for an act of sacrilege by the neighbouring southern Arrernte.[3]
The account of what occurred at Irbmangkara is based on the writings of Lutheran anthropologist, linguist and genealogist Carl Strehlow, but the people of Hermannsburg have stated that the events have remained a shaping factor in the area's local politics.
