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 lubra's corroboree has been running nightly for over a week giving much amusement to all. 20 or 30 sparesely-clad black girls dancing before large fires made by a mob of blackfellows who sit around.
