Mandu was the leader of the Mangarla tribe. It was his ideas and beliefs that would eventually lead to the formulation of the first Aboriginal Collective. It was Mandu 's belief that the deities worshipped by his people and the people of other tribes may be the same or similar, but in different forms, and that this was the only reason that the tribes were not united. He began to see characteristics of the deities he believed in and worshipped in the beliefs of the other tribes, and became determined to convince his tribe of this.
