This painting relates to the rockhole site of Kungkiyunti (Browns Bore), West of Haasts Bluff. A group of women camped at this site to perform the ceremonies associated with the area. The women later travelled west to Ngutjulnga, just to the east of the Kintore Community, where they all perished from the cold as they were unable to get their fire-sticks to light. A small group of rounded rocks at this site is said to represent the women as they hunched their backs against the cold. The lines depict the sandhills that surround the site. During their travels the women gathered the edible fruit pura (bush tomato) from the plant Solanum chippendalei, and mangata (quandong) from the small tree Santalum acuminatum.
