Theo (Faye) Nangala Hudson Pikilyi Jukurrpa (Vaughan Springs Dreaming)

Pikilyi is a large and important waterhole and natural spring near Mount Doreen station. Pikilyi Jukurrpa (Vaughan Springs Dreaming) tells of the home of two rainbow serpents, ancestral heroes who lived together as man and wife. The woman ‘rainbow serpent’ was of the Napanangka skin group, the man was a Japangardi. This was a taboo relationship contrary to Walpiri religious law. Women of the Napanangka & Napangardi subsection sat by the two serpents picking lice off them. For this service the two serpents allowed the women to take water from the springs at Piklyi. This was because the serpents were the ‘kirda’ or ceremonial owners, for that country. The spirits of these two rainbow serpents are still at Piklyi today. This dreaming belongs to the women & men of the Japanangka/Napangka & Japangardi/ Napangardi skin groups.
