Keringke means 'kangaroo tracks' as related to a Dreamtime story. In the story, a giant red kangaroo came to pass through this country. As he did so, he became caught in a yellow vine and could go no further. With all the flies around, he began to throw dust over himself, in doing this, he made a big hole and became a rock hole. After kangaroo left his footprints in the rock which can still be seen today, the rock hole became Keringke.
