Country
Thalanyji lands, according to Norman Tindale, encompassed approximately , running along the Ashburton River, and extending from the coast to Nanutarra, Boolaloo, and the lower Henry River. Tindale thought that their presence around Exmouth Gulf reflected late migration to that area.

Society
The Thalanyji practised neither circumcision or subincision.

Language

The Thalanyji spoke the Thalanyji language, but this is thought to be now extinct.
