| Women
have the responsibility of gathering bush foods. These include
bush plums, bush yams, bush onions, honey ants and various bush
medicines. The activities are accompanied by ceremonies, rituals,
song and dance cycles and body painting in celebration of the
Dreamtime and the anticipated abundance of the harvest. They
also propitiate the forces that control the health of the land
and keep it happy.
