The widespread legend of the Three Sisters tells of three sisters, Wimalah, Meeni, and Gunedoo, members of the Katoomba tribe, living in Jamison Valley. They fell in love with three men from the neighboring Nepean tribe, but the Stone Law prohibited them from marrying. The brothers disagreed with this law and decided to capture the three sisters. A fierce tribal battle ensued, during which the sisters were turned to stone by a tribal elder for their protection. However, he fell in battle, and no one else could bring them back.
