According to Carolyn Briggs, a Bunurong Elder, Bunjil told the Bunurong always to welcome guests, but stipulated that guests should obey Bunjil's laws and do no harm to children or the land.
- Dans la mythologie des Aborigènes d'Australie, en particulier Kulin incluant Wurundjeri et Bunurong, Bunjil est le dieu suprême. Les Kulin proclament qu'il est un héros culturel qui leur apprit toutes les compétences nécessaires à la vie, mais les Wurundjeri disent qu'il créa l'Humanité. Il vit maintenant dans le ciel. Binbeal est son fils.
