Hidden Caves and the big handprints in Bungle Bungles by Troy Drill
In the hidden caves on my family’s country, there my ancestors’ handprints. and right there in the centre of the cave there is also one giant handprints on the cave walls. The handprints bigger than my own.
The hidden caves are in between the limestones. Special place for my people.
The biggest handprint looks like it is missing a finger. When you fly above Purnululu that is how the national park looks from the sky.
The big hand with the missing finger is the symbol of the Bungle Bungles.
