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 blacks at Anthony's Lagoon gave a small "big fellow cockatoo corroboree" in honour of the aviators that flew in from Cloncurry.
