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 native corroboree was held for the passengers of the H.M.S. Cordelia which was docked at the port.
