 In a report in by the "Adelaide Advertiser" in 1952, some Indigenous men had died in The Granites gold mine in the Tanami Desert, after reporting a sighting of a kurdaitcha man.They were very scared and danced a corroboree to chase evil spirits away.Anthropologist Ted Strehlow and doctors brought into investigate said that the deaths were most likely caused by malnutrition and pneumonia, and Strehlow said that Aboriginal belief in "black magic" was in general dying out.
