The ochre is country. The circles below country is all the
knowledge. The footsteps show people coming for a meeting,
men and women, Aboriginal (brown feet) and visiting
researchers (white feet). They are all sharing their stories.
The yellow dots in the circle are stories that can be given out
(public) stories. The grey dots in the circle are the secret
or private stories.
The ochre dots are stories or knowledge that can be talked
about to help people understand, but they can’t be taken
away. They talk and agree about what good the research can
do. They come to be friends. Everybody is happy and they
walk off together.
