This is a Tingarri painting of the ancestors travels through a very sacred region north of Tjukurla called Kulkurda. The custodians of Tjukurla are also the custodians of this country and it is very difficult to access these days. No one is allowed to travel there unaccompnaied and no hunting is allowed on this country. It is forbidden ti stay there at night and the landforms are the resting place of the spirits of deceased family members that watch over the country. Neil has painted the rockholes and creeks there with the puli (large sandhills) on one side and the Spinifex country on the other. All of the men are there.
