ENQUIRE

This jila ngapa (living spring) is right in the middle of a warla (lake). When you walk from the jilji (sandhill) side, you can see the jila Yimirri and the water rising up from it.

Tjigila Nada Rawlins tells how the ancestral spirit snake sees them walking up and they would sing out to that snake to send ngapa (water) their way.
