The Devils Marbles are a sacred site known as Karlu Karlu in the language of the traditional owners the Warumungu people. Being one of the most widely recognised symbols of Australia’s outback, the Devils Marbles are also one of the most visited reserves/places in the Northern Territory. The Devils Marbles are large granitic boulders that form the exposed top layer of an extensive and mostly underground granite formation. They are of great cultural and spiritual significance to the Aboriginal traditional owners of the land, and the reserve protects one of the oldest religious sites in the world as well as the natural rock formations found there. Karlu Karlu is the local Aboriginal term for both the rock features and the surrounding area.
Thanks a lot Helen!
