Only corroborees that were recorded can be represented, such that these are often those witnessed by and/or performed for colonists and other audiences. Their distribution therefor reflects colonial presence rather than the distribution of corroborees.
A large number of original natives were encamped around the town and attracted the townspeople to the river bank by announcing a corroboree.
