Description

Layer Warning:
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 "hunting the kangaroo" corroboree was held at the showground for the Midsummer show. It was performed by the Yulgilbar blacks.
