Description: Kuk... Kuk... The parched rooster can't KUKAROOKOO—his throat is dry. The village pond has emptied. Only a badwa can ask gods for rain. His surprising instruction? Paint! This Bhil origin myth explores thirst and water conservation—vital in dry western India. The Bhil people's deep connection with nature finds expression in their sacred pithora art, born from this story of survival and devotion.
