'Rolla-Mano determined to capture them', 1923. How the stars were made; Rolla-Mano, the old man of the sea, determines to capture two women he sees in a mangrove swamp. One of the women escapes by diving into the water, and as Rolla-Mano jumps after her, the sparks from his torch fly into the sky and make the stars. From Some Myths and Legends of the Australian Aborigines by WJ Thomas, 1923.
