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.

This is the story of the seven sisters. The sisters fled from Wati Nyiru creating the country and landscape around Andrea’s home, Mala. They created the rockhole’s, sandhills and rocky outcrops as they tried to escape. The women flew up into the sky. Now, Wati Nyiru can be seen as Orion in the sky and the sisters are the Pleiades constellation.
