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.; A corroboree was held at the Union Ground as entertainment after the international rugby union game between Queensland and the English footballers. It was decided to only have the western aborigines as the combining of the different tribes might be a the means of a tribal war.
