STORY
This dreaming, that belongs to Jakamarra/Jupurrurla and Nakamarra/Napurrurla groups, is about a snake, called pirlkardi in Warlpiri. It is a small snake that is found near Yumurrpa, south west of Lajamanu. It doesn’ t hurt humans, it just brushes against their legs, and it is not eaten as food.
