Wati kutjara nyinanyi (two men are sitting). Kunkunpa (sleeping). They were painting inside the cave. When they woke up they were looking for the two women. The eldest is called Wanyinta and the younger Alartjatjarra. The two brothers are really wanampi (snakes men). The women had travelled a long way, east of Yalata. The men were searching everywhere for them. Tjukurpa pulkana mulapa. (This is a very important true story). This rockhole is close up to Nyapari.
