Exhibition – Night – Corroboree
The land of Barrambin (Exhibition Showground) means windy place. A place of corroboree and tournament, culture and pride. A gathering place for reeds, firewood, fishing and hunting in open woodland. This place was also a meeting place for information sharing, dance, and kinship arrangements.
This lore place saw disputes settled and wrongs corrected – a dance circle was nearby where young people (kippas) were inducted into adulthood. On occasion, marriages are arranged too.
