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 British Fleet were entertained by a blackfellows' corroboree performed by fifty blacks from Barambah and eight from Taroom. Several thousand people showed up.
