This story comes from a big hill called Mawurrji, west of Yuendumu and north of Pikilyi (Vaughan Springs). A group of ‘janganpa’ ancestors resided there. Every night they would go out in search of food. Their hunting trips took them to Wirlki and Wanapirdi, where they found ‘pamapardu’ (flying ants). They journeyed on to Ngarlkirdipini looking for water. A Nampijinpa women was living at Mawurrji with her two daughters. She gave her daughters in marriage to a Jupurrurla ‘janganpa’ but later decided to run away with them. The Jupurrurla angrily pursued the woman. He tracked them to Mawurrji where he killed them with a stone axe. Their bodies are now rocks at this place. Warlpiri people perform a young men’s initiation ceremony, which involves the Janganpa Jukurrpa. The Janganpa Jukurrpa belongs to Jakamarra\/Jupurrurla men and Nakamarra\/Napurrurla women. In Warlpiri paintings traditional iconography is used to represent this Jukurrpa. ‘Janganpa’ tracks are often represented as ‘E’ shaped figures and concentric circles are used to depict the trees in which the ‘janganpa’ live, and also the sites at Mawurrji.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aboriginal Bush Traders","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57150619320486,"sku":"ASJN699PCBS","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1452\/1988\/files\/ASJN699PCBS_4.jpg?v=1787614898"},{"product_id":"andrea-adamson-powder-coated-bowl-small-from-better-world-arts","title":"Andrea Adamson Powder Coated Bowl Small from Better World Arts","description":"\u003cp class=\"product-title h3\"\u003eD:10cm H:5cm-AAD777\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSEVEN SISTERS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Sisters created the landscape as they tried to escape from Wati Nyiru.
