The custodians of the Ngurlu Jukurrpa (Native seed dreaming) are Nakamarra and Napurrurla women and the Jukurrpa is associated with a place called Jaralypari, north of Yuendumu. Lukarrara is a species of Fimbristylis, a grass that bears edible seeds in the winter time. The seeds are traditionally ground on a large stone (Puturlu) with a smaller stone (Ngalikirri) to make a flour. This flour is mixed with water (Ngapa) to make a damper. In contemporary Warlpiri paintings traditional iconography is used to represent the Jukurrpa, particular sites and other elements and in paintings of this Jukurrpa large concentric circles are used to represent Jaralypari and also the Ngurlu. U shapes are used to represent Karnta (women).
