This dreaming is about the plentiful bush tomatoes (wanakiji) that our people collected all over our country. The ripe tomatoes are found everywhere. There are two sorts of tomatoes, one large and one small. Sometimes the people use a special wood scoop to push the seeds out and then they dry the fruit in the
sun or near a fire. My grandmother sometimes cooked them in the fire for us to eat.
