In the Ngarrangkarni (Dreaming) Daiwul, the barramundi, passed through this country when he was being chased by three women who wanted to catch him. They laid a spinifex net made out of gilgan (river spinifex) across the river, but
Daiwul jumped through and escaped. Daiwul came to Nganbun (Wesley Springs), but there was not enough water in the spring and so he moved on to this place called Kowinji (Cattle Creek) where he slipped into the water and became stuck under a rock. He ist still there
in the water today. The three women followed Daiwul to Kowinji and turned into stone. When you go to Cattle Creek you must goorarra the women (talk to them in language) to ask them for good fishing.
