The Djang'kawu (also Djanggawul) are the three principal creation ancestors of the Dhuwa moiety of north-east Arnhem Land: a brother and his two sisters, reckoned children of the Sun. They paddled a bark canoe from the island of Bralgu (Burralku) across the Arafura Sea, navigating by the Morning Star, and came ashore near Yalangbara. Travelling inland, the Brother named the plants, animals, waters and places, and in naming them made them; he struck the ground with his long sacred digging-stick, the mauwulan, to open fresh-water wells. He and his sisters distributed the rangga emblems, armbands and feathered headdresses they had carried in the canoe, and set down the Ngärra ceremonies that the Dhuwa clans still perform. The myth was recorded in detail by W. Lloyd Warner and given its standard scholarly treatment, with the 188-song Djanggawul cycle, by Ronald M. Berndt.
