"On one side you can see the four women are sitting at the campfire cooking up the bush tucker they have been collecting in the bush tucker in the area called Bunglepitty. They have bows full of all kinds of food like quandongs, bush onions and Tinka (goanna). In the middle are the women with a wooden bowl full of bush tucker. They have their punu (digging sticks) with them. There are many sandhills and ranges there and they are depicted in the traditional designs used in Women's ceremonies."
