The Legend .and then Mudangkala, the blind woman arose from the ground carrying three babies in her arms. As she crawled in the darkness across the featureless landscape, seawater followed and filled the imprints made by her body. Eventually the pools became one and formed a channel. The old woman continued her journey overland and once again the moulded earth filled with the flow of water. Before she left, Mudangkala covered the islands she had created with plants and filled the land and sea with living creatures. Finally the land was prepared for her children and for the generation of Tiwi who followed.
