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 jubilee ceremony was held at Encounter in a large erected pavilion for Rev. R.W. Newland. The following day during the Jubilee tea festival, a native corroboree on the green attracted a large portion of the dispersing crowd, the hilarity of the blacks producing a strange contrast to the proceedings in the pavilion.
