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 continental concert and corroboree took place before a crush of white people. A better corroboree was promised if the whites came to visit the blacks' camp.
