EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Stone Giant or Cannibal" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into American Indian mythology and legends. The engraving, created by an anonymous American School artist, depicts a scene from the myths of the Iroquois tribe. In this illustration, we witness a supernatural being known as the Stone Giant or Cannibal attacking with arrows. The image is part of an article on Myths of the Iroquois written by Erminnie A Smith and published in J. W. Powell's Second Annual Report of the Bureau of Ethnology in 1880-81. It showcases not only historical and ethnographic aspects but also sheds light on Native American spirituality and beliefs. The intricate details captured in this engraving transport us to North America during that era when tribes like the Iroquoian people inhabited these lands. The giant figure towering over its victims evokes both awe and fear while emphasizing their mythological significance. Through this artwork, we are reminded of the rich cultural heritage passed down through generations among indigenous peoples across America. It serves as a reminder that history is not just about dates but encompasses stories woven with spirituality, gods, heroes, and mythical creatures. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate how art can preserve ancient tales while providing insights into different societies' beliefs and traditions.
