| Description | The Wagyl, according to local Western Australian indigenous Noongar culture, is a snakelike dreamtime creature responsible for the creation of waterways and landforms. This mythical being is strongly associated with rivers, lakes and is supposed still to reside deep beneath springs, effectively in the aquifer. As the Wagyl slithered over the land, his track shaped the sand dunes, his body scoured out the course of the rivers; where he occasionally stopped for a rest, he created bays and lakes. Outcrops of limestone are said to be his droppings. As he moved, his scales scraped off and become the forests and woodlands. As such all of these various sites are considered sacred by the local Noongar community. Book Name: Solving the Groundwater Challenges of the 21st Century |
