In Indigenous culture in North Australia, the quoll is associated with the duwa patrimoiety and it is also a mythological character who in human form fought with the Moon man. The quoll wanted humans to die once and for all, but the Moon said there should be rebirth. They went their separate ways, the quoll dying like all creatures but the moon rose up to be reborn every month. Today the curled up claw of the quoll is a symbol for death.

Njanjma is the Kunwinjku and Kundjeyhmi name for the quoll. In other Bininj Kunwok dialects such as Kundedjnjenghmi, Kune and Kuninjku they call the quoll djabbo.
