Karlukarlu, the aboriginal name given to a rock from the devils marbles, which was removed from its original location 46 years ago, transported 400 kilometre to Alice Springs where it was placed above John Flynn's grave to save guard his ashes. He was a flying doctor and was passionate by the biblical story of crucifixion in which a large stone (a devil sized marble) was moved to the entrance of Christ’s grave some centuries ago. It was his wish to be buried somewhere along the Australian location where these type of rocks may be found. The image shows an example of these type of rock.
