The Dreaming depicted on this canvas belongs to the community of Warlukurlangu territory, southwest of Yuendumu. The Jampijinpa/Jangala women are responsible for its customary use. An old blue-tongued lizard-man, from the Jampijinpa tribe, lived on a hill with his two Jangala sons. The old man had pretended to be blind and sent his two sons to hunt for him, while he ate all the food before they returned. One day, after a long hunt, the two sons returned with a kangaroo. They did not know that this kangaroo was actually sacred to the Lungkarda.
