Wandjinas are the most powerful spirit ancestors in the Northern Kimberley. They are the life force; all children are born
from Wungud which was created by Wandjina. These Wandjinas are painted in rock shelters at Iondra in the Komaduwah
Clan estate. They are our evidence in this land and for my land title. They are proof of ownership to my land. I footwalked
this country plenty of times. This is a proper dreaming place. "guidia" white man got bible stories - we have our Wandjina.
