went up to them and took them towards the east. Jakamarra took them to a place called Yalankirri that is in
Alawarri Country. The Jakamarra was singing love songs for them and so he left them at Yalankirri, while he was
singing he made the ladies put their hands behind their backs. The ladies stopped at this place called Yalankirri
