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.
Between sixty and seventy Aboriginals mustered at the Court House to receive the usual distribution of blankets. A corroboree was held.
