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.
About 300 people assembled to witness a corroboree given by the natives from surrounding districts and Port Lincoln. About 250 natives were present from Point Macleay, Meningie, Goolwa, Wellington, Adelaide and Port Lincoln..
