Name	Corroborees in Austage, 1816 to 1935
Description	A collection of corroborees collected from historical and contemporary records. This is only a small portion of the corroborees recorded in AusStage, including only those that have been geolocated.
Type	Event
Content Warning	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.

Weeip had kin ties with a group centred on the locality where ‘Lennard’s Brook’ emerges from the hills, an area rich in yams and supporting intensive Aboriginal usage. By evening a full-scale reception had been arranged. The guests were offered plenty of kangaroo meat, creating formal reciprocal obligations. We found the natives all encamped near us . . . at night they entertained us with a corrobberry, which was got up on our account . . . The several figures did not differ materially from those which were familiar to us, but the words which accompanied each change contained strong allusions to passing events . . . these ceremonials . . . serve the purpose of historic records. The songs were accompanied by dance, and the participants wore elaborate bodydecoration, for example, arm-ornaments of “Gnow” (mallee-bird) feathers.

The only amusement we had up to 1851 was the natives used to meet once a month on the full moon in Fawkner Park, opposite the Fawkner Hotel. The hotel lies between the Park and Millswyn-street, but there was no hotel, park or streets there then, but all bush. There the blacks held their corroboree, and I have seen the greater portion of the people of Melbourne and Prahran turn out and visit the camp on those occasions.

When Queenscliff because a summer resort the blacks used to entertain the visitors, in day by throwing their spears, and boomerangs, and in the evenings by what they called a corroberry [sic.] which was held in the reserve at the south end of Learmonth St. The corroborree consisted of native songs, and dances. They would dress themselves up with boughs from the wattle trees placed round their legs, and arms, when dancing these anklets &c. would give out a rustling noise that was pleasing to them. They would paint all the bare parts of body, with whiting, and yellow ochre, chests, arms, and faces, and make a large fire, the men would stand round it, and sing, and dance, whilst the lubras would sit round with their ‘possum skins doubled up in a fashion that when struck with the hand it resembled a kind of drum, and they kept excellent time to the other performers. Some of the gentlemen visitors would give the king of the tribe a past cast off dress suit of clothes namely a swallow tail coat and belltopper hat, and after the performers had sung, and danced the king would go round collecting, with the hat, this being the only evening entertainment we had in those days, they were very liberally supported.

About a week ago from 09/02/1857 an immense congregation of blacks held a corroboree which was well attended by the white population. The gentlemen in black have repeated the piece nightly to the infinite amusement of their white brethren and to their own profit. Described as a truly picturesque and natural drama the writer of the article recommends Mr. Stephens from Our Lyceum in Sydney (Australian Bunyips) to take a lesson out of their book.

Description

The aboriginal corroboree and display of fireworks at the Copenhagen grounds on Monday evening drew together a large number of persons, and the novel entertainment proved a decided success. Aboriginal habits in their most primitive style were displayed by about thirty-five natives, from various tribes around Ballarat, including about a dozen lubras, who were nearly naked and daubed over with paints. Between five and six hundred assembled to witness it. Professor Prescott, the lessee of the grounds, purposes on a future evening to allow the natives the use of the grounds for another corroboree

Description

We saw the greatest number on Sunday, and their notions of Sabbath observance seemed rather Parisian than English. All seemed to be in a happy mood, laughing, singing, and even dancing. One sat on the summit of one of the highest hills chanting his corroboree, and beating time with sticks. At a distance were two going through some peculiar terpsichorean performances. Others met us as they were indulging in melodies of a somewhat monotonous character. Of one vocalist we begged a translation of the ditty he had been warbling; but after hesitating some time, he expressed it in his opinion that it was impossible for the aborigines and Europeans to make themselves mutually intelligible in poetry.
