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 crowd of six hundred whites attended the blacks camp which contained about sixteen aborigines to see Beaufort Dinah proclaimed king and witness a corroboree in which seven blacks performed on a lorry.
