The Aniwan people are an Australian Indigenous tribe that occupied current day Armidale, New South Wales before the British colonised the area. The Aniwan tribe reached Armidale thousands of years ago during the migration from South Asia some 50,000 years ago. The Aniwan tribe spoke the Nganyaywana language.
