The Arunta,

The totemic system of the Arunta and other Central Australian tribes is based on the idea of the reincarnation of Alchera [old old time] ancestors who were in many cases regarded as the actual transformations of animals and plants or of such inanimate objects as water, fire, wind, sun, moon, and stars.¹
