- Churingas were wooden or stone spiritual objects used in mens secret-sacred rituals by the Aboriginal people of the Central and Western Deserts of Australia. The Churingas of the Arrernte people of the Central Desert were usually inscribed with waves and concentric circles and coloured with red ochre. This Churinga with its geometric patterns is more typical of the peoples of the Western Desert.
