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 tribe belonging to King George's Sound were persuaded by the offer of some tubs of rice and sugar to hold a corroboree.
