This canva is a stylized, sacred map in which ritual sites (concentric circles) occupy the locations of watering places frequented by Aborigines on their wanderings - symbols of life in this desert environment and traces of the Great Ancestors who are said to have created them.
These watering holes are linked by trails, both real and allegorical, symbolizing the paths of initiation. They delimit sacred areas that Aboriginal artists are heirs and guardians of.
