Abstract

Four men from three skin groups (Jangala, Jakamarra and Jupurrurla) teach the old and new Warlpiri names and skin names of 35 plants and insects to young Japanangka and Jupurrurla men. Additional information shared includes plant uses (e.g. as food, medicine, shelter; for making tools; or as indicators of water), and details of seasonal changes to the plant and songs.
