EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured steel engraving, created by W.H. Lizars after an illustration by Charles Hamilton Smith, showcases a man and a woman of the Garrow people, an Indo-Chinese tribe residing east of the mighty Brahmaputra River in Indo-China, now known as Assam, India. The Garrows, also referred to as the Garos or Borok, are an ethnically distinct group with a rich cultural heritage. The man in the image is adorned with a bandana wrapped around his head, signifying his tribal identity. His neck is adorned with intricately designed necklaces, which add to his regal appearance. The woman, equally beautiful, wears hoop earrings and a necklace, enhancing her grace and elegance. Her hair is styled in a traditional manner, reflecting the unique customs of the Garrow people. Charles Hamilton Smith, a renowned Scottish naturalist and ethnologist, created this illustration as part of his comprehensive work, "The Natural History of the Human Species," published in Edinburgh in 1848. Smith's meticulous attention to detail and his deep appreciation for the diversity of human races are evident in this striking representation of the Garrow people. The Garrows, who have inhabited the region for centuries, have a rich cultural heritage, with their own distinct language, customs, and traditions. They are primarily agriculturalists, growing rice, maize, and other crops. Their society is matrilineal, with the women holding significant power and influence in their communities. Despite facing numerous challenges, including encroachment of their lands and cultural assimilation, the Garrow people continue to preserve their unique identity and traditions. This image serves as a testament to their resilience and the rich cultural diversity of Indo-China.
