— Appears in: Australian Aboriginal Mythology 1975; (p. 102-122) This paper falls into five parts, first, it explicates Dalabon taxonomy; second, discusses a Dalabon emu myth; third, the author analyses the myth to illustrate how it treats the anomaly; four, discusses other emu myths in order to show that the Dalabon is one of a group, each member of which is related to others by a number of permutations; and, fifth, the author considers what wider significance the emu studies may be taken to possess.
