The Nomlaki (also Noamlakee, Central Wintu, Nomelaki) are a Wintun people. They are the Native people of what is now known as the Sacramento Valley, extending westward to the Coast Range in Northern California. Today, some Nomlaki people are enrolled in the federally recognized tribes: Round Valley Indian Tribes, Grindstone Indian Rancheria or the Paskenta Band of Nomlaki Indians.

The Nomlaki were bordered by the Wintu (Wintun) in the north, the Yana in the northeast and east, the Konkow (Maiduan) in the east, the Patwin (Wintun) in the south, and the Yuki in the west. They spoke the Nomlaki language, but there are only partial speakers of it.
