EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a detailed depiction of a Susquehannock warrior, taken from the renowned Map of Virginia engraved by William Hole in the early 17th century. Published in 1612, this engraving provides us with a glimpse into the rich history and culture of this Native American tribe. The Susquehannocks were known for their fierce and warlike nature, as depicted by the warrior's imposing presence. Clad in animal skins and armed with a bow, he stands tall and proud, representing the strength and resilience of his people. This image transports us back to a time when North America was still largely unexplored by European settlers. The Susquehannocks inhabited territories in Pennsylvania, leaving an indelible mark on American history. John Smith, famous for his encounters with Native Americans during his exploration of Virginia, met these formidable warriors in 1608. Their legacy continued until their tragic demise in 1763. As we admire this artwork from the comfort of our modern lives, let us remember that it is more than just an aesthetically pleasing composition; it serves as a reminder of the diverse indigenous cultures that once thrived across America's vast landscapes. This photograph invites us to appreciate and respect the heritage left behind by tribes like the Susquehannocks who shaped our nation's past.
