I'm standing on the western edge
of the Gibson desert. It covers
00:00:40.74\00:00:44.71
an area of 15 million hectares
or 150,000 sq./km. making it
00:00:44.74\00:00:51.91
the fifth-largest desert in
Australia. It's a vast region of
00:00:51.95\00:00:56.12
undulating red sand plants,
rocky ridges, dunes, scrubby
00:00:56.15\00:01:01.46
trees and desert grass.
This harsh and inhospitable
00:01:01.49\00:01:06.36
environment provides the setting
for deeply moving love story and
00:01:06.39\00:01:12.00
an Australian version of Romeo
and Juliet. This is a story
00:01:12.03\00:01:16.00
about landscape and the people
whose existence and identity is
00:01:16.04\00:01:21.78
the payment on their connection
to their land, their country.
00:01:21.81\00:01:26.51
It's a story of a young
couple who fall in love, but are
00:01:26.55\00:01:30.05
forbidden to marry by tribal law
so against the wishes of their
00:01:30.09\00:01:35.22
elders they elope and run
away into the deep desert almost
00:01:35.26\00:01:39.93
inaccessible of regions. After
many years of living alone they
00:01:39.96\00:01:45.93
became possibly Australia's
last desert nomads living the
00:01:45.97\00:01:50.01
traditional indigenous life
style. In the 1970s they were
00:01:50.04\00:01:55.44
forced by severe drought to move
into a town on the fringes of
00:01:55.48\00:01:59.91
the desert. They thought they
were the last of their line of
00:01:59.95\00:02:04.09
desert nomads and that the time
of their people caring for their
00:02:04.12\00:02:08.26
lands had come to an end. This
is their story. The story of
00:02:08.29\00:02:14.46
Warri and Jetungca. Don't
miss it because it carries an
00:02:14.50\00:02:19.17
important message
for all of us today.
00:02:19.20\00:02:25.44
Wiluna is an old gold rush town
in the northern region of west
00:02:44.79\00:02:48.63
Australia's golden outback with
a real bush atmosphere. It's
00:02:48.66\00:02:53.57
located on the edge of the
western desert at the gateway to
00:02:53.60\00:02:57.54
two iconic Australian journeys:
The Canning Stock Route and the
00:02:57.57\00:03:02.44
Gunbarrel Highway. The town
is located on the tribal lands
00:03:02.48\00:03:07.68
of the Madu people who have
lived here in this desert region
00:03:07.72\00:03:11.75
for centuries. At its peak
Wiluna was home to the biggest
00:03:11.79\00:03:17.19
gold mine in western Australia
and had a population of about
00:03:17.23\00:03:21.46
10,000 people. Most of them were
fortune seekers who came here
00:03:21.50\00:03:27.24
hoping to strike it rich in the
gold mine. But today Wiluna is
00:03:27.27\00:03:34.18
primarily a Madu indigenous
community. It has an active
00:03:34.21\00:03:38.58
administrative center and its
young people are being trained
00:03:38.61\00:03:42.68
to be leaders and rangers to
care for their land. Any history
00:03:42.72\00:03:47.49
Wiluna has two parallel streams.
European history that started
00:03:47.52\00:03:53.33
with surveyor Lawrence Wells in
1892 and centered around cattle
00:03:53.36\00:03:58.60
and gold. And then indigenous
history which is infinitely
00:03:58.63\00:04:03.44
longer and centered around
the story of the Madu people and
00:04:03.47\00:04:08.14
their attachment to this land.
To understand the Madu story
00:04:08.18\00:04:12.51
it's important to understand
their relationship to the land.
00:04:12.55\00:04:19.12
When speaking English Aboriginal
people often talk about the
00:04:19.15\00:04:24.89
landscape using the name country
It's a name not a description.
00:04:24.93\00:04:29.33
an anthropologist
described it this way:
00:04:29.36\00:04:32.43
The original inhabitants of this
region were the Madu people.
00:05:15.54\00:05:19.48
These indigenous people have a
very deep relationship with the
00:05:19.51\00:05:24.29
land. Every aspect of their
lives is connected to it. They
00:05:24.32\00:05:29.72
have a spiritual, physical
social and cultural connection
00:05:29.76\00:05:33.90
with the land and this vital
connection is expressed in every
00:05:33.93\00:05:40.17
Aboriginal art form and
ceremonial performance whether
00:05:40.20\00:05:43.07
it be dance, music or painting.
00:05:43.10\00:05:45.94
Kind of like to paint about my
people and most of all about my
00:05:45.97\00:05:52.25
country. It's where we lived
and where my people lived for
00:05:52.28\00:05:59.42
generations. Well this painting
is about my grandfather. He
00:05:59.45\00:06:06.26
wanted to find the two old
people. This is my grandfather
00:06:06.29\00:06:12.30
and this is the Canning
Stock Route and these are the
00:06:12.33\00:06:19.94
water holes along the way and
these two are, this is the old
00:06:19.97\00:06:30.05
lady, that's the old man. I
just think that it's important
00:06:30.09\00:06:35.72
to know this stories about the
00:06:35.76\00:06:41.66
old people. People go out there
now. It would be good to know
00:06:41.70\00:06:46.37
where those stock holes are to
find water. So my painting tells
00:06:46.40\00:06:52.07
a very important
story to my people.
00:06:52.11\00:06:59.41
This is the Wiluna Cemetery
on the edge of the western
00:06:59.45\00:07:04.52
deserts. This is the land of the
Madu people. Madu culture is one
00:07:04.55\00:07:10.19
the oldest in the world.
For thousands of years three of
00:07:10.23\00:07:14.70
Australia's western deserts have
come under the stewardship of
00:07:14.73\00:07:18.80
the Madu people. Their country
includes part of the Great Sandy
00:07:18.83\00:07:24.41
Little Sandy and Gibson Deserts.
And here on the edge of their
00:07:24.44\00:07:31.95
country are the graves of Warri
and Jetungca. It is possible
00:07:31.98\00:07:35.98
that this couple
were Australia's last true
00:07:36.02\00:07:39.79
desert nomads.
00:07:39.82\00:07:41.16
Long after the Madu
people have gravitated to urban
00:07:42.42\00:07:45.49
settlements. This couple
survived for decades living in
00:07:45.53\00:07:50.07
their country, their ancestral
lands, their promised land
00:07:50.10\00:07:55.70
traveling between the water
holes, hunting and gathering
00:07:55.74\00:07:58.71
wild fruits and bush taka.
Warri and Jetungca met in the
00:07:58.74\00:08:04.41
1930s and fell in love but
indigenous tribal law forbade
00:08:04.45\00:08:09.98
them to marry. However,
their love was strong and their
00:08:10.02\00:08:13.82
commitment to each other
unbreakable. They just had to be
00:08:13.86\00:08:19.09
together. So to avoid severe
physical punishment or even
00:08:19.13\00:08:22.63
death the star-crossed lovers
eloped and ran away together in
00:08:22.66\00:08:28.27
the middle of the night to live
in exile in the desert lands of
00:08:28.30\00:08:33.98
another tribe. Nothing
could keep them apart. They were
00:08:34.01\00:08:37.21
prepared to suffer isolation,
banishment and the harshness of
00:08:37.25\00:08:41.98
the desert in order to stay
together. Warri and Jetungca
00:08:42.02\00:08:47.02
remained in exile for a great
many years. They had two sons,
00:08:47.06\00:08:52.89
but were not completely happy
because they couldn't live in
00:08:52.93\00:08:56.40
country of their birth to hunt
and gather food and participate
00:08:56.43\00:09:01.37
in social gatherings. Eventually
their longing for their country
00:09:01.40\00:09:06.11
became too strong to bear, their
sadness so profound that they
00:09:06.14\00:09:12.01
chose to return back across
the barren plains and sand hills
00:09:12.05\00:09:16.28
until once more they stood
in their own country. They were
00:09:16.32\00:09:21.26
back in their promised land. But
they found that great changes
00:09:21.29\00:09:26.56
had happened during their
absence. There had been an
00:09:26.59\00:09:29.86
exodus of people from the
desert lands. Warri and Jetungca
00:09:29.90\00:09:34.00
returned to a land that was
almost empty of people. They
00:09:34.04\00:09:39.87
weren't punished for their
defiance of tribal marriage laws
00:09:39.91\00:09:43.21
because there were no council
elders left to judge them. The
00:09:43.24\00:09:48.32
couple and their sons became
just another family moving up
00:09:48.35\00:09:52.29
and down their country. They
were home, but it wasn't the
00:09:52.32\00:09:56.93
home they left when they
ran away. Now there was hardly
00:09:56.96\00:10:01.06
anyone around. In the years
that followed their homecoming
00:10:01.10\00:10:05.27
Warri and Jetungca saw their
remaining kinsfolk leave their
00:10:05.30\00:10:10.57
country they loved. And as
their own children became adults
00:10:10.61\00:10:15.18
they also left to find wives and
didn't return except for brief
00:10:15.21\00:10:21.12
visits. The time came when
Warri and Jetungca were the only
00:10:21.15\00:10:26.35
human occupants of their country
The only people living in a vast
00:10:26.39\00:10:31.89
expanse of the western Gibson
desert. They were left to wander
00:10:31.93\00:10:37.23
as their ancestors had done for
centuries, moving from one water
00:10:37.27\00:10:42.10
hole to another, hunting and
gathering food, two people alone
00:10:42.14\00:10:48.54
in the desert. When the rains
fall and the seasons are good
00:10:48.58\00:10:55.02
there's an abundance of water
in the soaks and rock pools and
00:10:55.62\00:10:58.65
there were plenty of animals to
hunt. Life is good in the desert
00:10:58.69\00:11:03.63
but back in 1977 it had been
three years since there had been
00:11:03.66\00:11:10.33
any rain and the water holes
were drying up. The animals were
00:11:10.37\00:11:14.97
dying and there was no food.
The drought became more severe
00:11:15.00\00:11:19.71
and Warri and Jetungca's
situation became desperate.
00:11:19.74\00:11:25.58
Despite Warri and Jetungca's
early defiance the tribal elders
00:11:25.61\00:11:29.55
were constantly worried about
how Warri and Jetungca were
00:11:29.95\00:11:33.32
surviving alone in the desert
and decided to send out a search
00:11:33.36\00:11:37.53
party. The search for Warri and
Jetungca began here where the
00:11:37.56\00:11:42.33
Canning Stock Route starts near
Wiluna. The Canning Stock Route
00:11:42.36\00:11:47.14
is an 1850 km chain of wells
that operated for a few short
00:11:47.17\00:11:50.97
decades in a moderately
successful way for drovers to
00:11:51.01\00:11:57.28
drive cattle through the desert.
It's the longest stock route in
00:11:57.31\00:12:01.62
the world. The line of wells
crossed the ancestral lands
00:12:01.65\00:12:06.15
or countries of many desert
people. It's the road that many
00:12:06.19\00:12:10.93
of Warri and Jetungca's tribe
followed out of their desert
00:12:10.96\00:12:14.46
lives and into the fringes of
urban life. A childhood friend
00:12:14.50\00:12:19.53
of Warri's and now a senior
tribal elder set out with a
00:12:19.57\00:12:23.81
local doctor and others
to search for the last of the
00:12:23.84\00:12:27.58
nomads. The elder's name was
Mudjung. He desperately wanted
00:12:27.61\00:12:32.68
to find his old friends and
rescue them from their desperate
00:12:32.71\00:12:36.15
situation.
00:12:36.18\00:12:37.52
My uncle was one of the senior
and more respected elders at the
00:12:37.55\00:12:42.62
time throughout the western and
central desert. The families and
00:12:42.66\00:12:47.00
(Clinton Farmer) people knew he
was a wise man and he knew the
00:12:47.03\00:12:53.34
desert so well that he knew
exactly where to go even though
00:12:53.37\00:12:57.57
there was no tracks to lead
him. He relied on the desert
00:12:57.61\00:13:03.31
knowledge that was passed on
for generations and for the time
00:13:03.35\00:13:08.92
that our people used to
survive this harsh country.
00:13:08.95\00:13:12.75
They searched the barren desert
for days and covered hundreds of
00:13:12.79\00:13:18.19
kilometers in their search
but found no sign of Warri and
00:13:18.23\00:13:22.56
Jetungca. They went from water
hole to water hole hoping to
00:13:22.60\00:13:26.27
find some evidence of the
desert nomads. But not a sign.
00:13:26.30\00:13:31.14
When they were about to
reluctantly give up their search
00:13:31.17\00:13:34.98
Mudjung lit a grass fire to send
up a smoke signal with a fierce
00:13:35.01\00:13:40.18
plume of smoke. And then they
waited to see if there would be
00:13:40.22\00:13:44.52
an answer. Suddenly Mudjung
shouted and pointed excitedly
00:13:44.55\00:13:49.99
to the north and there it was.
In the distance a faint wisp of
00:13:50.03\00:13:57.90
smoke spiraling into the blue
sky. Someone was alive out there
00:13:57.93\00:14:03.74
Somebody had made the long
journey to the last water hole.
00:14:03.77\00:14:08.78
Could it be Warri and Jetungca?
Excitedly the team set off
00:14:08.81\00:14:14.88
behind Mudjung in the direction
of the distant smoke. And near a
00:14:14.92\00:14:21.86
dried up clay pan Warri and
Jetungca were found by their old
00:14:21.89\00:14:25.36
friend Mudjung. He had searched
tirelessly with his knowledge of
00:14:25.39\00:14:29.03
the desert that no white man
could ever possess and he found
00:14:29.06\00:14:33.27
them just in time. The frail
old couple had no food and were
00:14:33.30\00:14:38.54
barely alive. Warri was
debilitated with a leg injury
00:14:38.57\00:14:43.31
and was unable to hunt.
Jetungca was the sole food
00:14:43.35\00:14:48.95
provider. Warri was kept alive
only by the skill of the woman
00:14:48.98\00:14:53.39
that he had supposedly
wrongfully taken as his wife
00:14:53.42\00:14:57.03
many years ago. Without
Jetungca's devotion Warri would
00:14:57.06\00:15:02.23
have died long ago. He was
utterly dependent on her for
00:15:02.26\00:15:07.00
survival. Mudjung asked whether
they wanted to stay in the
00:15:07.04\00:15:11.24
desert or return with the rescue
team. They said they would come.
00:15:11.27\00:15:15.44
They were weak and could
no longer live alone in their
00:15:15.48\00:15:19.55
country without the help
and support of young people.
00:15:19.58\00:15:23.79
Warri and Jetungca wanted to
see their sons again, but they
00:15:23.82\00:15:29.86
wondered what kind of welcome
they would get from those who
00:15:29.89\00:15:31.66
knew that they had broken tribal
law. Mudjung assured them that
00:15:31.69\00:15:36.73
they had discussed the matter
many times with the elders and
00:15:36.77\00:15:40.97
it had been agreed that no
punishment would be given. The
00:15:41.00\00:15:48.64
old couple gathered together
a few meager possessions, their
00:15:48.68\00:15:52.91
spears and spear thrower, the
carrying dish and ax They walked
00:15:52.95\00:15:57.99
toward the vehicle without
a backward glance. Then Warri
00:15:58.02\00:16:01.92
walked away a short distance to
stand and gaze about having one
00:16:01.96\00:16:06.96
last look at the country, their
country, then climbed onto the
00:16:07.00\00:16:12.33
back of the vehicle. Slowly the
vehicle headed towards Wiluna.
00:16:12.37\00:16:18.51
The last of the nomads were
leaving their desert lands. In
00:16:18.54\00:16:24.11
Wiluna Warri and Jetungca
faced confusion in their new
00:16:24.15\00:16:27.68
surroundings sitting among their
own people once more. They found
00:16:27.72\00:16:32.02
communication difficult. After
40 years all alone in the desert
00:16:32.05\00:16:36.89
they weren't used to long
conversations or the hustle and
00:16:36.93\00:16:40.90
bustle of a busy town. They
were already homesick for their
00:16:40.93\00:16:46.67
country, their desert lands.
They longed for the freedom of
00:16:46.70\00:16:50.64
open spaces. They longed to feel
the red sand under their feet
00:16:50.67\00:16:55.34
and to hear the howl of
the dingo at night. They were
00:16:55.38\00:17:01.22
separated from their land and
they were lost. In April 1979,
00:17:01.25\00:17:06.89
less than two years after
leaving his ancestral lands,
00:17:06.92\00:17:10.86
Warri became ill and despite
treatment died on the 28th of
00:17:10.89\00:17:16.63
April. Jetungca was shattered
by her husband's death. She was
00:17:16.67\00:17:22.07
profoundly depressed, unable
to accept the fact that the man
00:17:22.10\00:17:27.48
she'd eloped with, the man who
had been by her side as her sole
00:17:27.51\00:17:31.51
companion in the desert
00:17:31.55\00:17:32.88
for over 40 years was gone. She
lost all interest in life. She
00:17:32.91\00:17:38.95
refused to take food. She just
couldn't live without Warri and
00:17:38.99\00:17:44.29
died less than a month later
on the 23rd of May 1979. She was
00:17:44.33\00:17:51.50
buried here next to her
beloved Warri. They couldn't be
00:17:51.53\00:17:55.87
separated in life and not even
death could separate them. They
00:17:55.90\00:18:01.91
lie here beside each other in
the local cemetery on the edge
00:18:01.94\00:18:06.58
of their country. When Warri and
Jetungca, the last of the nomads
00:18:06.61\00:18:14.76
came into Wiluna from the desert
their friend Mudjung, the Madu
00:18:14.79\00:18:19.86
tribal elder, despaired for his
people and for his land. With
00:18:19.89\00:18:25.37
the last guardians of the land
gone, who would clear the water
00:18:25.40\00:18:29.70
holes and burn the Spinifex
grass to bring fresh regrowth.
00:18:29.74\00:18:35.08
Mudjung despaired. Would
his people ever return to their
00:18:35.11\00:18:39.55
ancestral lands, their promised
land. Well the drought was hard
00:18:39.58\00:18:44.72
and the Madu faced decades of
social and political challenges.
00:18:44.75\00:18:49.16
But Mudjung' s dream is being
fulfilled today. The Madu lands
00:18:49.19\00:18:57.03
are now part of the most intact
arid ecosystem anywhere on
00:18:57.07\00:19:02.74
earth and are home to many
of Australia's most threatened
00:19:02.77\00:19:05.97
species like the greater bilby,
the black flanked rock wallaby
00:19:06.01\00:19:12.61
and the brush-tailed mulgara.
Men's and women's Madu ranger
00:19:12.65\00:19:17.85
teams are restoring traditional
burning practices, controlling
00:19:17.89\00:19:21.56
feral animals, rehabilitating
water holes and working with
00:19:21.59\00:19:27.13
scientists to protect threatened
species like bilbies and rock
00:19:27.16\00:19:31.37
wallabies and to fulfill
Mudjung' s dream the association
00:19:31.40\00:19:36.00
also has a
fantastic leadership program.
00:19:36.04\00:19:38.94
(Margaret Samson) Ranger program
has taught me a lot and gave me
00:19:38.97\00:19:46.05
a lot of understanding of our
country and how to connect with
00:19:46.08\00:19:50.32
country because the elders who's
got stories to tell the younger
00:19:50.35\00:19:55.72
generation about what country
is all about and with this job
00:19:55.76\00:20:01.56
I sort of came closer to being
proud of my ancestors I guess
00:20:01.60\00:20:08.10
you know when you go country you
feel that connection that you
00:20:08.14\00:20:11.64
have been there before because
we connect with country as
00:20:11.67\00:20:16.58
Madu people.
00:20:16.61\00:20:18.41
The story of the Madu people
is a story of contact, conflict,
00:20:18.45\00:20:24.89
exile and survival, of exodus
and return. Above all, it's a
00:20:24.92\00:20:31.83
story of family, culture
and country. Warri, Jetungca and
00:20:31.86\00:20:39.23
Mudjong believed they were
seeing the end of their people's
00:20:39.27\00:20:41.70
cultural relationship with
the land that was so precious to
00:20:41.74\00:20:44.24
them. But it wasn't the end.
As new generations of Madu have
00:20:44.27\00:20:49.11
returned to their country, their
promised land. Today we have
00:20:49.14\00:20:54.75
learned just a fraction of the
long history of the Madu people
00:20:54.78\00:20:58.62
and how their identity is tied
to the land. After many years
00:20:58.65\00:21:04.69
away on the fringes of
their country the Madu have now
00:21:04.73\00:21:08.83
returned to actively caring for
their traditional land and are
00:21:08.86\00:21:12.67
growing their young people as
leaders. Mudjung, the Madu elder
00:21:12.70\00:21:16.60
with the dream of bringing his
people back to their land, their
00:21:16.64\00:21:22.11
promised land and Warri and
Jetungca, the last nomads, would
00:21:22.14\00:21:25.68
be pleased. There is a
wonderful and appropriate
00:21:25.71\00:21:31.05
promise found in
Genesis chapter 28 and verse 15.
00:21:31.09\00:21:33.89
Here's what it says:
00:21:33.92\00:21:35.92
It's a promise made to
the patriarch Jacob and his
00:21:50.41\00:21:53.58
descendants but it also applies
to each one of us as well.
00:21:53.61\00:21:58.15
And what about us? What is
the source of our spiritual
00:21:58.18\00:22:03.75
identity? As you consider this
question you can take comfort
00:22:03.79\00:22:08.42
from the words of the Bible:
00:22:08.46\00:22:09.79
You see, we too have a promised
land. Yes God has a plan for
00:22:16.43\00:22:21.24
your life and he has a promised
land in store for each of us and
00:22:21.27\00:22:26.47
he wants to see you enter your
promised land. Your immediate
00:22:26.51\00:22:30.75
promised land could be the
renewing of your marriage, the
00:22:30.78\00:22:34.98
salvation of your children,
breaking some bad habit, being
00:22:35.02\00:22:40.02
set free from some addiction
or just freedom from negative
00:22:40.06\00:22:45.46
thinking. Whatever it is,
God will give you victory and he
00:22:45.49\00:22:50.93
will lead you to a better place,
your promised land. But more
00:22:50.97\00:22:56.30
importantly there's an ultimate
promised land that God is
00:22:56.34\00:23:00.68
preparing for us. Do you
remember the wonderful promise
00:23:00.71\00:23:04.48
he made in John
chapter 14 verses 1 to 3.
00:23:04.51\00:23:08.05
Here's what he said:
00:23:08.08\00:23:09.72
Yes, Jesus is preparing a
place for you in that ultimate
00:23:30.81\00:23:36.51
promised land. All you've got to
do is accept him and follow him,
00:23:36.54\00:23:41.48
and he'll lead you there. Why
not decide right now that you
00:23:41.52\00:23:47.56
are going to possess your
promised land. God is good. He
00:23:47.59\00:23:52.66
will lead you there. Why not ask
him to do that right now as we
00:23:52.69\00:23:59.47
pray. Dear Heavenly Father,
today we have learned a little
00:23:59.50\00:24:04.87
of the long history of the Madu
people and how their identity is
00:24:04.91\00:24:10.41
tied to the land. We've also
heard the moving love story of
00:24:10.45\00:24:15.48
Warri Jetungca and their passion
for their land. Father our
00:24:15.52\00:24:23.32
spiritual identity is also tied
to the land, the promised land,
00:24:23.36\00:24:27.96
the heavenly place that you are
preparing for us and today we
00:24:28.00\00:24:32.80
want to accept and follow Jesus
and have him lead us there. We
00:24:32.83\00:24:38.67
ask this in Jesus' name. Amen.
00:24:38.71\00:24:42.31
The story of Warri and Jetongca,
their moving love story and
00:24:42.34\00:24:51.65
their survival in the outback
has captured the interest of
00:24:51.69\00:24:55.02
people all over the world and
it's so encouraging to find that
00:24:55.06\00:24:59.76
the Madu people have now
returned to actively caring for
00:24:59.79\00:25:03.73
their traditional lands, their
promised land but perhaps even
00:25:03.77\00:25:08.00
more importantly it's reassuring
to know that we too have a
00:25:08.04\00:25:12.91
promise of land and that God has
a plan for our lives here and
00:25:12.94\00:25:17.68
beyond. If you'd like to know
more about God's plan for you

eyes. There shall be no more
00:27:41.32\00:27:45.26
death nor sorrow nor crying.
There shall be no more pain for
00:27:45.29\00:27:49.76
the former
things have passed away.
