The Wanaruah People

The Wanaruah People take their totem from the wedge tailed eagle.  Their land stretches from the Liverpool Ranges in the north to Wollombi in the south and east from Sandy Hollow and Merriwa across the Western fringes of the Barrington Tops.

This rock painting depicts the creation spirit Biame. Creator of all things, this particular image is known to the local Wanaruah people as the Keeper of the Valley.

From the wall of the sandstone overhang south of Singleton he looks out through the Milbrodale Gap, over what is now the Putty Road, and into the Upper Hunter Valley. His long arms outstretched embracing the Valley and its people.
