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.
In the evening the Governor and members of his party witnessed the novel spectacle of a native corroboree which was held on the outskirts of the town. About 60 natives took part.
