Title: ‘Myth of Mai Kuyan and Mai Polpa, the Honey-bee Husband and Wife and Mai
Mola, their Bee Children. By Hope (Andjingit).’
Original language, then literal translation.
Free translation published in McConnel 1957: 142-143. Also paraphrased in McConnel (1930b:198-199). McConnel text #46.
This is almost certainly in error for Andyimban, Hope’s Aboriginal name. Hope (Andyimban) was not Andjingith but came from the Koondumbin clan of Meerokman estate on the lower Archer, a clan whose language was and is Wik-Mungkan.
