This artwork tells of the D’harawal story of Mananga, the Eagle Warrior who defeats an evil magician and his followers. The sculpture signifies the mountain where Mananga lived. It also represents the cave dwelling of the evil magician and his warriors. The steel fingers or talons symbolise Mananga's transition from man to eagle. In this transformed state he slays the evil clan and becomes the Protector of the Lands.
