In Alaskan Hut
circa 1900: Native Americans in a hut built for them in Yakutat Bay, Alaska, believed to be a great improvement on their wigwams. The dull, stupid, sullen or resigned look.. on the faces of all these Indians is characteristic. It appears to be the result of contact with civilisation. (Photo by Hulton Archive/Getty Images)

In Alaskan Hut (circa 1900) - A Glimpse into the Impact of Civilization on Native Americans
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, taken by Hulton Archive/Getty Images, transports us back to a time when Native Americans in Yakutat Bay, Alaska sought refuge in a newly built hut. Believed to be an improvement over their traditional wigwams, this dwelling stands as a symbol of changing times. The faces captured within the frame tell a story of profound transformation. The dullness, stupidity, sullenness or resignation etched onto each Indian's countenance is strikingly characteristic. It serves as evidence of the consequences that contact with civilization has had on these indigenous people. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness the clash between two worlds: one rooted in ancient traditions and harmonious coexistence with nature; the other representing progress and industrialization. The expressions worn by these individuals seem to reflect both loss and adaptation—a poignant reminder of the complexities faced by marginalized communities throughout history. As we observe this powerful image through our modern lens, it prompts us to contemplate how far we have come since then—and how much further there is still to go.
