French Explorers Discovering Chamorro Life on Guam: A Glimpse into the Past through a Handcolored Lithograph This handcolored lithograph, titled "French Explorers Visiting a Chamorro Stilt House on Guam," offers a fascinating window into the past, showcasing a pivotal moment in the encounter between European explorers and the indigenous Chamorro people on the island of Guam. The image, taken from Friedrich Wilhelm Goedsche's Complete Gallery of Peoples in True Pictures, published in Meissen between 1835 and 1840, provides a detailed ethnographic record of the customs, costumes, and daily life of the Chamorros during this period. In the picture, a group of French explorers, dressed in European attire, are seen standing in front of a Chamorro stilt house. The house, built on wooden piles to protect it from the frequent typhoons and flooding, is an essential aspect of traditional Chamorro architecture. The explorers are engaged in various activities, including observing the Chamorro women cooking over an open fire and smoking tobacco. The Chamorro women, dressed in traditional attire, are depicted wearing shell necklaces, skirts made from banana fibers, and headdresses adorned with feathers and flowers. They are preparing food using traditional methods, such as roasting coconuts and cooking fish over an open fire. The men, meanwhile, are seen smoking tobacco in long pipes. This intriguing image provides a valuable insight into the lives of the Chamorro people and their interactions with European explorers during the 19th century. It is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Guam and the importance of ethnographic records in preserving the history and traditions of indigenous communities. The handcolored lithograph is a beautiful and captivating reminder of the past, offering a glimpse into a world that has long since disappeared.
