Bagadjimbiri
In
Aboriginal mythology (specifically: Karadjeri), the
Bagadhimbiri are two brothers and creator gods. They arose from the ground as dingos and made
water-holes,
sex organs (from a
mushroom and another
fungus) for the androgynous first people, and invented
circumcision. Taking
human form, the Bagadjimbiri began an argument with
Ngariman, a
cat-person. Ngariman was annoyed by the Bagadjimbiri's laughter. He killed the brothers underground, but was drowned by
Dilga, their mother, who flooded the underground murder-spot with her
milk, which also revived her sons. The Bagadjimbiri eventually turned into
snakes and went to live in the sky as
clouds.
