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.
Men, women and children of the Adelaide tribe held a corroboree on the northern side of the Torrens. William Waldo paid a piece of silver to watch.
