This etching depicts designs associated with Wirrulnga, a rockhole site in a small rocky outcrop east of the Kiwirrkura Community in Western Australia. In ancestral times a group of women camped at this site. The women are represented by the two arc shapes beside the roundel. As they traveled they gathered the bush food known as kampurarrpa or desert raisin. These berries can be eaten straight from the bush but are sometimes ground into a paste and cooked in the coals to form a type of damper.
