EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1834 depicts native travelers of the island of Guam in the Mariana Islands, a region with a rich history of colonization by both Spanish and American forces. The image offers a glimpse into the daily lives of the indigenous people, showcasing their unique customs and traditions.
In the foreground, we see a group of individuals making their way along a dusty road. A woman carries a parasol to shield herself from the sun, while others ride on horseback or are carried in wheelchairs. The scene is bustling with activity as people and animals navigate through this tropical paradise.
The presence of beef being transported suggests that trade and commerce were an integral part of life on Guam during this time period. Despite facing challenges brought about by colonization, these resilient travelers continue their journey with determination and grace.
This engraving serves as a poignant reminder of the impact that outside influences have had on indigenous populations throughout history. It is important to recognize and honor the cultural heritage of places like Guam, celebrating the strength and resilience of its people in the face of adversity.
