Boomerangs produced in the Barkly region are non-returning!
Produced primarily for hunting, they are also used for fighting,
as a fire lighting saw and, in pairs, as percussion instruments
in ceremonies. The natural curve in Dogwood, Mulga, Ironwood
and Snappy Gum woods are used to create their convex shape.
Anyinginyi artists also create the very popular No.
7 boomerang.
