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.
40 of the natives held a corroboree near the Bon Accord Mines and a good number of Redruth and Aberdeen people attended to see the dance and hear the songs.
