$315.00
Orchid Man Story Told by Eddie Keppel “When we go fishing and camping in my country we’ve got to give our underarm smell to every stranger that comes along with us. If strangers hunt animals, catch fish or long necked turtles with us. If strangers hunt animals, catch fish or find long necked turtle, or yam in the ground, they’ll be protected from being speared by my totem, the orchid man. This is because all this belongs to him, that his bush tucker. If he finds strangers hunting or digging in his land, he’ll spear them. When He is traveling around he takes the form of a whirly wind. When he comes with a big wind. You will not see him but that is him “Munhpow”
