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.
400 warriors, gins and piccaninies from the Bunya Mountains were invited by the Dalby Blacks to come and look at the railway. Corroboree performances were given and the hat was handed round and several sixpences collected.
