Wuriupranili

In Aborigine mythology, Wuriupranili is a solar goddess[?] who carries a torch that is the sun. At the ocean to the west, she douses the torch in water and uses the glowing embers to find her way beneath the earth back to the east again. The colors of dawn and dusk come from the ochre[?] body paints she wears.
