We spent the afternoon at Nourlangie rock, an ancient aboriginal rock art site. The art was produced using ochres and hematite and has definately stood the test of time (some is believed to be 35,000 years old).

Wallaby in x ray style, shows the internal organs and skeleton

Some kind of party!

This is Nabulwinjbulwinj - a dangerous spirit who eats females after striking them with a yam, one not to be messed with!

A ceremony

The mimi spirit is said to have produced this one and others like it which are dotted around, often in unusual and inaccessible places.
