In the desert regions of Australia water and waterholes have played an important role in the evolution of indigenous peoples lifestyle, these waterholes were created in the dreamtime Jumangkarni and are all connected by subterranean tunnels. For the Wangkatjunga and Walmajarri people of the Great Sandy Desert knowledge of these waterholes was crucial to survival while living a traditional lifestyle. As a boy Lloyd walked much of the desert with his father Billy Thomas (Karntakarnta) and knows the importance of these waterholes and understands their connections well.
