Works by the Warlpiri People of Lajamanu
This dreaming, that belongs to Jakamarra/Jupurrurla and Nakamarra/Napurrurla groups, is about a snake, called pirlkardi in Warlpiri. It is a small snake that is found near Yumurrpa, south west of Lajamanu. It doesn’t hurt humans, it just brushes against their legs, and it is not eaten as food. This Jukurrpa is also at the small hill at Purrkiji or Yartulu Yartulu near Granite Mines.
