This design by Lisa Multa depicts the birds eye view of the tali tali (sandhills) at Kungkayunti (Brown's Bore), her family's Country west of Haasts Bluff. Kungkayunti was the home of Joe Multa, the father of Douglas Multa, Agnes Multa, Lisa Multa, Alison Multa, Rephina Multa, Benita Multa and others. The tali tali are a short walk from where the family lived and the children of Joe grew up. Lisa remembers walking up the tali tali with her sister, Agnes Multa, who was the same age as her. They would climb and play on those tali tali. From the tali tali, a 360-degree view can be seen of the surrounding country. The country around is full of bush tucker including bush tomatoes and bush banana. Kungkayunti is an important place for the travelling Tjukurrpa of the ancestral Arrernte women who travelled from near Kintore, past Kulpitarra (Outstation) to attend to women's business. Kungkayunti is the place where those ancestral women stopped at Kunkayunti (Brown's Bore) to camp, rest, eat and dance. When the women reached the end of their journey they rested and renewed their law. Those women turned into stone and can be seen today. Annual events continue to be held at this site.
