Minyarra Punmu – mmm mmm
This painting depicts collecting minyarra (bush onions) in the country around Punmu. Minyarra is one of the Martu peoples favourite bush tucker. They dig them up and then cook them in a waru (fire) for a little bit and then rub them to get the skins off. Punmu is a community that sits on the edge of an important warla (lake) known as Lake Dora. There are lots of important yinta (spring waters) all around Punmu. The lake runs south into the area known as Karlamilyi (Rudall River National Park) Rudall River runs into the bottom of the lake. Parnngurr Community is at the southern end of the Karlamilyi area.
