AbstractHistoryArchive Description

A story about a young man called Jungaroo and his young wife Goo-thoo who after their marriage ceremony walk to the Boolba country, (cave country) and stay in the underground caves. The caves are a short walk from the ocean. On this night, a terrible storm comes and a tide washes into the cave and traps the young couple. From this day their spirits remain in the caves and can only leave as willy willies.
