She arrived with her husband Wurragag, he however got tired after a while and sat down, turned into a rock and became dreaming.  As she made her way across the country, she created lands, rivers, hills, people, animals and plants. She carried 14 dilly bags. There are different dreamtime stories on what these dilly bags brought. Some say, when she put the dilly bags down children would run out of the bags. She would teach the children how to survive, what plants to eat, and gave them a language. Hence she is known as the ‘mother of the tribes’. Other stories say she arrived on this land with a belly full of babies and dilly bags filled with food. In either story, the dilly bags brought life to this land.
