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.; The Poolamacca Blacks gave a thrilling exhibition of boomerang and spear throwing followed by a corroboree in the evening.
