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.
A number of Aboriginals performed a corroboree for the Earl of Rosebery who donated a liberal sum of money for the purchase of flour &c.
