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 corroboree was held by the blacks of the district including some from the Murrumbidgee on the banks of the river. About 25 blacks took part. A good number of persons from Wahgunyah and Corowa assembled to witness the natives in their war dances. A collection was taken up with a tidy sum being realised.
