In Aboriginal mythology, the Djanggawul are three siblings, two female and one male, who created the landscape of Australia and covered it with flora. They came from the underworld, Beralku and were eventually eaten by Galeru.

The two female Djanggawul made the world's sacred talismans by breaking off pieces of their vulvas.

They included Bunbulama, a rain goddess.
