This painting is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tjungu Palya Artists which states: 'These are all the travelling tracks in my country. I travelled around this country in the early days with my family. There's a lot of rockholes and we used to walk to all of them. We would stop and camp for a while collecting food and then move on to another place. The rockhole at Mt Aloysius had good water. I was born here. The other rockholes are: Inurantja, Tjilpultjanga, Junpunga (watiku ngura), Mapantji (patilku ngura), Ultjutjara, Iltjutjanga, Yaliri, Palkarli, Numpa-numpa, Pukara (wati kutjara tjukurpa), Anamarapiti, Palkini, Punu Wara, Apulunga, Attanga and Wanungtjiri.'
