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.
All the passengers of the steamer Empire came ashore in the evening to witness a native corroboree on the cricket oval.
