Title: Assorted Animal Dreamings

Description: This bundle contains the transcript of a 47 minute long conversation between Tarpot Ngamunugarri, Maggie Singh, Elsie Raymond, Kaiser Raymond, Jabiru Luwungmirr, and Francesca Merlan. A range of topics are covered in the conversation, but it focuses on dreaming stories associated with portions of Delamere and Willeroo Stations. Stories are told concerning “bedbod” and “bornorron” (honeyeater and brolga), “gawalyan” (echidna), “gumurrinji” and “bornorron” (emu and brolga), and “mabirling” and “gojogojog” (hare wallaby and bar-shouldered pigeon) associated with the area between Mathison Creek and the Edith River. Speakers frequently talk over each other and interrupt (some are intoxicated) but much of it is transcribable. The date is an approximation and represents the year 1976. The bundle contains a .pdf file with the transcription.
