Part of a big painting about dreamland
The Pleiades (Seven Sisters) are an important group of stars,
which form the basis of a similar myth all across Australia.
They represent a group of young women, seven sisters, who are pursued by Orion.
In the desert communities, this is considered a woman's myth.
It is a belief of Aboriginals of South Eastern Australia that the Pleiades
were seven brave and courageous young women placed in the sky as role models.
