This is the story of the Spear Tjukurpa and the Wanampi men. An army of men go spearing. Two rainbow serpents were talking together, saying, ‘What should we become?’ They discussed many possibilities. As the two were speaking, they said, as one, ‘We’ll become spears.’ They immediately turned into spears. So now, our spears hold that Wanampi Tjukurpa. The Wanampi Tjukurpa is within the spear shaft.
