The Quinkans are spirit figures depicted in Aboriginal rock art from Queensland, Australia, particularly in the Laura region of Cape York Peninsula. According to Aboriginal mythology, Quinkans were supernatural beings that lived in the rocks and crevices, influencing the lives of the people.

They are usually represented in two forms: the tall, thin Timaras, who frightened people, and the short, mischievous Imjims, who played tricks on them. The rock art, created thousands of years ago, shows vivid images of these spirits, often painted in red or white ochre.

Today, the Quinkan rock art is recognized as one of the most significant collections of Indigenous rock paintings in Australia, offering deep insight into the spiritual beliefs, cultural traditions, and storytelling practices of Aboriginal communities.
