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 blacks coming from Georgetown visiting the Chillagoe blacks held a corroboree on nearly every night this week. This has been a source of entertainment for the townsfolk who visit the camp to witness these corroborees.
