Tjunti is a soakage site near Kaḻṯukatjara, in the Northern Territory of Australia.

[2] The gap in the mountains is formed here by the Hull River, a sandy creek that remains dry for most of the year.

Lasseter took shelter here for about 25 days during January 1931, when trying to find a rich gold deposit that he claimed to have discovered in the area on an earlier expedition.

He was later found by a local Pitjantjatjara family, who provided him food and water before Lasseter decided to leave the cave and attempt to walk the 140 km (87 mi) to Kata Tjuṯa.

He was weak from dehydration, malnutrition and exhaustion, and he died three days later, after walking about 55 km (34 mi).
