This work depicts the Mongagaooloo which is the birth place of his father. He was then taken Kirriwirri where he met his wife and then they had Merridoo who was born in Ilyarra. These are very sacred and important jila (living water) places in the Great Sandy Desert. This shows painting shows all the different bush foods and is a very important place for Meridoo and his family. These are big creation stories including part of the Wati Katjurra (two men dreaming) Jukurrpa which runs right through this country.
