This painting depicts designs associated with the rockhole site of Ralyalnga, northwest
of the Kintore community, south of Kiwirrkura Community. In mythological
times a large group of Tingari men visited this site during their travels to Lake
Mackay. Since events associated with the Tingari Cycle are of a secret nature no
further detail is given.
