The Dreaming depicted in this painting belongs to the community of Warlukurlangu territory, south-west of Yuendumu. The Jampijinpa/Jangala women have customary responsibility for it. An old lizard-man with a blue tongue (Tiliqua multifasciata, also known as Lungkarda), 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 in his place, while he ate all the food before they returned.

One day, after a long hunt, the two sons returned with a kangaroo. Little did they know that this kangaroo was actually sacred in the eyes of the Lungkarda. In contemporary Aboriginal painting, a traditional symbolism persists. Here, Warlpiri artist Nathania Nangala Granites depicts sacred sites from the Dreamtime Stories. These include Warlukurlangu (the cave and home of the old man), Kirrkirrmanu (where the kangaroo was killed), Wayililnypa (where the two young men were killed) and Marnimarnu (a swamp where the two young men camped).
