This painting is the story of men hunting for Emu using spears and hunting boomerangs. At contact, the Aboriginal economy was based on a stable, considered management of the environment and an effective organization of labor. Males and females made different but complementary economic contributions. Women were primarily the gatherers of vegetables, roots, herbs, fruits, nuts, eggs and honey, and small land animals such as Snakes and Goannas. Men hunted large land animals and birds and cooperated in organizing large-scale hunting drives to catch Emus and Kangaroos. The collection and preparation of this wide variety of bush food required the development of efficient, multifunctional technology, considerable practical skills, and seasonal changes. Some plant foods were easy to collect but required complex preparation.
