Stone

199. This rare Aboriginal carved stone closely resembles a churinga, a sacred ceremonial object traditionally created by Central Australian Aboriginal groups, particularly the Arrernte and neighbouring desert peoples. One side is finely engraved with motifs that appear to depict a central waterhole or ceremonial ground, surrounded by track-like designs and a lizard figure. The piece comes from an early collection dated prior to the 1950s and measures approximately 19cm by 7cm.
