Kuḻpi Muṯitjulu (the Muṯitjulu Cave) is the family cave. For many generations, Aṉangu families camped here.
The men would hunt for kuka (meat), and the women and children would collect mai (bush foods). The foods would be brought back here to share.
Generations of Aṉangu families told stories around the campfire here, teaching children and painting on the rock. These stories are still kept and handed down to Aṉangu children today.
The Muṯitjulu Cave has many examples of concentric circles, which can represent a waterhole, a campsite or a place of significance. Multiple concentric circles linked by lines may represent a journey. How many of these can you see?
Visit the Muṯitjulu Cave on the Kuniya walk.
