Description

"Once the earth was completely dark and silent; nothing moved on the surface. Inside a cave below the Nullabor Plain slept a woman, the Sun. Baiame woke her and told her to emerge from her cave and stir the universe into life. As the Sun Mother opened her eyes the darkness disappeared as her rays spread over the land; she took a breath and the air gently moved as a small breeze blew.
The Sun Mother then travelled from east to west and from north to south. She crossed the barren land and wherever her rays touched the earth, plants grew until the land was covered with vegetation."
From the Aboriginal story of 'Creation', Karraru Tribe.
