In the desert regions of Australia water and waterholes have played an important role in the evolution of the lifestyles of indigenous people. These waterholes were created in the dreamtime Jumangkarni and are all connected by subterranean tunnels. For the Wangkajunga and Walmajarra people of the Great Sandy Desert knowledge of these waterholes was crucial to survival while living a traditional lifestyle. As a boy, Lloyd walked much of the desert with his father Billy Thomas – Karntakarnta, and knows the importance of these waterholes and understands their connections well.
