Andrea tells us about the seven sisters and their travels through the country as they are pursued by Wati (Man) Nyiru. Nyiru fell in love with the sisters, and even though they were of the wrong skin name, he was desperate to make them his.

SEVEN SISTERS
The Sisters created the landscape as they tried to escape from Wati Nyiru. They formed a rock hole that went underground and emerged on the other side of the hill. The women dived into the water and then flew up into the sky. Wati Nyiru followed them. Today, Wati Nyiru can be seen to the south of the Seven Sisters (the Pleiades), still chasing them across the sky.
