STORY
Title Translation: North Head / and also Pelican storyIn Gadigal stories we believe that the creator spirit Biame was feminine. She slept laying on her side in the Cumberland plains and awoke to push herself back to create the mountains and pushed out her legs to create our great waterways. When she was done she perched at Garangal as Pelican (of the same name) and took flight to Kati Thanda (Lake Eyre) to create songline to our brothers and sisters of the Arabana all the way down in South Australia and connect us to mobs in the interior by the breeding cycles of the Pelican.
