EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, taken from Giulio Ferrrario's 'Costumes Antique and Modern of All Peoples' published in Florence in 1842, offers a glimpse into the daily life of the House of the Island Carib or Kalinago people in the West Indies. The serene scene depicts a man reclining in a rattan hammock, cradled by the sturdy branches of a tree, beneath a thatched roof. The roof, made of palm fronds, provides shelter from the tropical sun, while the rattan table and basket add functional elegance to the setting. A water jug, also made of rattan, lies nearby, suggesting the importance of water in the daily life of this community. The Island Caribs, also known as the Kalinago people, are an indigenous people of the Caribbean, with a rich history that predates European colonization. They are believed to have originated from the Orinoco River basin in South America and migrated to the islands through a series of voyages and invasions. The Kalinago people are known for their strong connection to the land and their traditional way of life, which includes subsistence farming, fishing, and hunting. This handcoloured copperplate engraving by Migliavacca provides a valuable record of the material culture and daily life of the Kalinago people during the early 19th century. It is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of indigenous communities in the face of colonialism and the changing world around them.
