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 number of natives, who have been to Adelaide and are returning to the Murray, are encamped in the township, and have been visited by nearly every one in the place, the palefaces seeming to be greatly attracted by the corroboree, which their sable brethren hold nightly.
