User:Lawungkurr

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lawungkurr is the name of a Dreamtime woman still respected for her mediation skills. Kunwinjku elders of western Arnhem Land gave this name to Denise Goodfellow (Goodfellow, 2007).<Denise Lawungkurr Goodfellow (2007). Quiet Snake Dreaming, Darwin: Scrubfowl Press>.

Kunwinjku elders began to deliberate on a name for Denise in 1984, only coming to a decision in 2000. All of Denise's publications before 2000 do not include this name.
