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.
Mr & Mrs Sewell were at Maytown where Mr Guilfoyle arranged a corroboree for their pleasure. They danced the Stingeree, Kangaroo, Boiler, Bullock and Possum corroboree and many others. The southern visitors took photographs.
