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.
Wellington and Murray Blacks arrived on foot early Monday morning and in several dingies to hold a "big one corroboree". The chief object of the visit to the Meningie tribe is amusement. Tuesday night the Murray Tribe performed for 3 hours. There were not less than 200 blackfellows present. more were expected from Maria Creek, McGrath's Flat and Point Macleay
