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.
Before the declaration of the state of poll at Kelso, George Suttor (an Aboriginal native) addressed the crowd and then sung a native song and danced a corroboree much to the amusement of all assembled.
