When Warlimpirrnga first saw a European he said “I couldn't believe it. I thought he was the devil, a bad spirit and was the colour of clouds at sunrise."
On October 1984, a family of nine Pintupi, referred to in the international press as the ‘Lost Nomads’ or the ‘Pintubi Nine’, were brought in from the Great Sandy Desert in Central Australia and reunited with their extended family at Kiwirrkurra. They included Walala and Warlimpirrnga Tjapaltjarri and Tamlik Tjapangati (also referred to as Thomas Tjapaltjarri).
