Birds hold an important place in the creation stories of the language groups of the Eastern Kulin Nation -Taungurung is one of these groups, the others being Woiwurrung, Boonwurrung, DjaDjawurrung and Wadawurrung.
The most important of the birds is Bunjil the Wedge Tailed Eagle, our Creator and Waang (Waa) the Crow -our protector.
Bunjil and Waang are the totems of approximately 70 clams of the Eastern Kulin Nation.
The Great Dividing Range, where Kinglake sits, is a place where Taungurung and Woiwurrung peoples often met to discuss business.
This was a collaborative project between Uncle Mick Harding. Mitchel Harding, Tim Honey and Anthony Brady.
