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.
One of the biggest corroborees held for years was given in honour of the visitors at Tea-tree Station. About 200 bush and semi-civilized natives had gathered together, and they were rewarded for their performance by gifts of a bullock and tobacco.
