RAMINDJERI WATER DREAMING
In the Dreamtime, our Ramindjeri RUWI didn’t have much freshwater in soakages, creeks, and rivers. A long time ago, our ancestors saw that there were no fresh waterways around our country, so one ancestor went out into the scrub, grabbed a tree, and thrust it through the ground. Water immediately began coming out of the ground. As he dragged the tree all the way to the ocean, he created what are now the Hindmarsh River and the Inman River. The rivers still flow today.

Then our ancestors all gathered in the Hindmarsh Valley. They came from all over Ngarrindjeri RUWI. When they arrived, everyone started performing for the big ceremony and began to dance. Their dancing feet on the dry soil created water ponds through the valley. The water ponds were created by their dancing feet to catch the water as it rained in the valley. Still today, the ponds through the valley, created for us to get fresh water to drink from, are now used by farmers.
