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.
Sir Henry Barkly stopped at Angus McMillan's homestead on the way to Omeo and was gratified by the sight of a corroboree of 100 black fellows.
