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.
After the Mt Burr races had ended considerable amusement was caused by the aboriginals who showed their endurance by jumping in sacks, wheeling barrows blindfolded, foot races and finishing with a grand corroboree.
