"This painting depicts a large area surrounding Lingka and Muntapi the place of Mr Hogans birth place. Shown are the rockholes at Mantapil lingka, Karngka, Tarli karnka, Undinyuuna, Tjatanya, Damping, Wandirii, Tjarika, Pilkayla, Kurli, Badudaa, Arnbirri, Nganundii, Tjampingka, Nyundilka, Nyundilka Mama, Waranka, Tjuratja Tjarla and Makura. Within this area of the country many stories are found although most cannot be elaborated and Mr Hogan just mentions the presence of the Crow, Dog, Bush Cat, Honey Ant, Turkey and Female Possum. This is an area where many people used to live with good water and kids 'playing around safe' in the sandhills".
