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 gift of a few figs of tobacco, and a bottle of whisky was promptly followed by a grand corroboree.
