Make it Real Bag Charm by Cecelia Tigan

Aambarn and Jiidid (Manta ray and whirlpool) 

Aambarn or Manta rays are not hunted by Mayala people, they swim freely and we let them be, we have respect for them, and they live alongside us. They can become very large and only breach the surface at certain times, it’s rare to see the large ones.  

We have a big whirlpool on Mayala country It protects us from cyclones, sucking the cyclone down into the ocean before it makes landfall. If Mayala people want to cross over to visit other Country on the other side of Sunday Straight the only time you can cross is at king tides when the water is high and safe to cross.

When an artist thrives, their community also benefits.
