This place is called Arulya. There is a cave called Kuruyiti where all the children hide because there is a big rain coming.
Their big brother is outside eating and sleeping and will not come inside. Big hail stones come down and they kill that big brother so he remains outside. This is a creation dreamtime story, you can see it in the landscape there.
Wati Tjakura, an edible skink lizard, is another creation story that took place at Arulya. The Wal Mala, army, of Wati Wanambi from Malara came and threw spears at Wati Tjakura. He tried to escape but they killed him. His family came down to bury him.
