This is an area of the artist's traditional country at the north end of Newry Station. The billabong indicated by the yellow area is Nilligum. In the hills above the billabong, the one at the far right is called Mowiya. This is the place where the diamond head rock python used to live. But the Langerrung - King Brown snake came and stole that hill place away from the rock python so that python went to Bucket Springs area where the spring is at Doojum. Lungerrung took that hill ten acre area away to Lungabi that is a place only about two hundred yards away to the left of the billabong.
