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.
Lord Jersey and party arrived at Port Darwin. In the evening the visitors witnessed a very large blackfellows' corroboree. It is said to have cost him a "fiver" in food and tobacco.
