Story
Henry Wambini was born sometime around 1934 at Tickelara about 45 kilometres south of Turkey Creek in the east Kimberley. He has passed away recently (February 2003). His skin name was Jawalyi. Wambini is a name belonging to part of the Bungle Bungles. His other bush name, Nilmayirriny, is from the dreaming for a type of yam found growing in black soil and refers to the cracks made in the black soil by the yam in the dry time.
