Birthing Caves on Jagun (country)

This painting represents traditional ancient birthing caves. 

Traditionally women would birth in these caves naturally with their mothers or grandmothers, the birth caves are usually located in places where fresh running water or salty ocean water can wash in with the tide and wash and cleanse them. 

They are cool inside and have an overhanging of rock for natural shade and a flat bottom for comfort. 

There are hundreds of these caves all over Australia and culturally only women should visit them.
