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.
On Thursday and Friday evening the residents of Maclean were treated to an aborigines corroboree. There was a good attendance of the public to witness it. About twenty aborigines took part in the performance.
