Aboriginal cultural experiencesin the Northern Territory

Towering escarpments, sandy beaches and monsoon forest 🌿 #JimJimFalls is a special place in @seekakadu to connect with this ancient landscape and its Aboriginal culture. Take your time to experience the peace and serenity 🧡 Over the dry season, the roads become accessible again and the area can be visited by 4WD. The name Jim Jim comes from andjimdjim, an Aboriginal name for the water pandanus that line the creek.

Parlingarri (creation time) it is believed that the whole world was in perpetual darkness and inhabited by yamparriparri (evil spirits). The wulimaka (old lady) Murtankala came up from underground with three children in a tunga (bark bag) on her back. As she moved around on the surface, she created grooves and crevices in the land with her body. Some of these filled with water and created the geographical shapes and channels of the Tiwi Islands. She made yikwani (fire) by rubbing grass and sticks together and lifted it up into the sky with her two hands to create light for her children, one of whom was Purukuparli (the first Tiwi man). This light became warnarringa (the sun).
