EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving, titled "Muchicongo men and many wives outside a hut, Angola," offers a glimpse into the daily life of the Muchicongo people in the early 19th century. The image, taken from Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World," published in Florence in 1834, depicts a group of Muchicongo men sitting outside a hut, engaged in social activities. They are seen smoking cachimbo pipes, a traditional tobacco pipe, and enjoying a moment of camaraderie. In the foreground, several women are shown attending to their daily chores. They are pounding corn to make the local drink, oualo, a popular beverage among the Muchicongo people. Other women are seen brushing their hair with animal bone combs, adding a touch of elegance to their appearance. The women are dressed in simple loincloths, adorned with beads and other decorative elements. The hut in the background serves as a symbol of the Muchicongo people's connection to their land and culture. The use of handcolouring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a visually stunning representation of the Muchicongo people and their way of life. This engraving provides a valuable historical record of a culture that has contributed significantly to the rich tapestry of Angolan history and heritage.
