Rockybar is one of our hunting and gathering bush tucker and also one of our catchment that runs into the Chamblain River which runs to the East Rockybar known to Gija people as Willudngaire why this place is special to me because I caught a black bream there. From history to generation to generation our old people would share (Ngardarngundi story to us means dreamtime story) This fish I caught looked deformed instantly. Believing this fish was an unborn child, I shared this feeling with my step dad and others at that time. Going home, I also shared this with my brother, sisters and family. Several months passed, and my youngest sister gave birth to her first child (baby girl). The midwife was surprise to see a birth mark on her side of her ribcage making of a fish my niece before human life. As a black bream and was caught at Rockybar we have a strong connection with our land’s dreamtime stories and our culture before human life we come from our land as some form of animals plants and bush fruits we call that Judinbar (Reincarnation).
