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.
The blacks of Mount Gambier tried to make money by getting up grand corroborees for the amusement of the residents.
