Morris has depicted the Possum Dreaming. It refers to a site north of Kintore (west of Papunya) and Kalipinya. The ‘E’ shapes are the tracks made by the possums and the curved lines indicate the paths travelled by the Possum Ancestors. The circles are kapi tjukula or rock holes where water can be found. Stories of the Possum Ancestors belong to the ‘Creation or Dreamtime’ world; the stories told by indigenous people to explain the material world. The Possum Ancestors travelled the land holding ceremonies and secret sacred rituals to create land formations, as we know them today. The Possum Ancestors are honoured by Aboriginal people in corroborees performed at these sites. |
