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 large crowd assembled on the showground to witness the corroboree of the Oban blacks and a pyrotechnic display. Reported in both Friday and Saturday papers - potentially performed twice.
