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.; About 200 blacks performed a corroboree. The whole of the white inhabitants from Goondiwindi turned out one evening to see the spectacle which was worth walking a mile to see. They also had corroborees outside the town which one one evening the whole of the white inhabitants turned out to see the spectacle.
