EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th century engraving depicts a group of Native American hunters skillfully pursuing bison on the vast North American prairie. The hunters, dressed in traditional attire, are shown riding horses and using bows and arrows to bring down the massive beasts. The bison, also known as American buffalo, are a prominent feature of the American West, and were once the backbone of the Great Plains ecosystem. The image offers a glimpse into the rich history of the indigenous peoples of North America and their deep connection to the natural world. Hunting was not only a means of survival for these communities, but also an integral part of their culture and spiritual practices. The bison provided not only food and shelter, but also hides for clothing and tools, and bones for making implements. The engraving also highlights the unique relationship between the Native Americans and their horses, which they acquired through trade with European settlers. Horses transformed the way they hunted, allowing them to cover greater distances and pursue bison more effectively. This powerful and evocative image invites us to reflect on the complex history of human interaction with nature, and the enduring impact of indigenous cultures on the American landscape. The bison, once hunted to near extinction, have made a remarkable comeback in recent decades, thanks to conservation efforts and the reintroduction of bison herds on the prairie. This engraving serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving both our natural heritage and the stories of the people who have shaped it.
