Reading edition

Mr Portman gives a somewhat similar version from the same tribe21. “Dim-do̱ra (a fish), a very long time ago, at Keri-l’oŋ-tower, was bringing fire from Puluga’s platform (fireplace). He, taking the fire, burnt everybody with it. Bolub and Tarko̱r and Biličau fell into the sea and became fishes. They took the fire to Rokwa-l’ar-toŋa village and made fires there.”
