	Wagyl - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Darling Scarp is said to represent the body of the Wagyl which meandered over the land creating the curves and contours of the hills and gullies, and the rivers, lakes like Lake Monger and springs.
		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, and he created bays and lakes.
		It has been suggested that the Wagyl stories represent the survival in oral tradition of the extinct megafauna of Australia, as there was a 5-6 metre long python (Scientifically called Wonambi naracoortensis), that was widely distributed in the southern states of the Australian mainland.

	Span number 37 Yorga Wangi: Rosemary Van den Berg
		The Rainbow Serpent created the Nyoongah people to care for the land and the wildlife, and when its work was finished, it delegated the Wagyl (a mythical serpent) to be the keeper of the fresh water sources.
		The Wagyl, a lesser, but nonetheless powerful, deity, protected the rivers, lakes and springs and the wildlife which abounded around, and in, these areas.
		In essence, the Rainbow Serpent was the creator, the Wagyl was the keeper of the rivers, lakes and springs, and the Nyoongah people were the guardians of the land.

		It is not overlaid: all the markings are there to be seen if you read closely, as you’ve been told.
