EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing hand-colored steel engraving by W.H. Lizars, two indigenous men from the Yellowknives (Tatsanot'ine) and Sekani (Cluche) nations proudly display their cultural identities in the bustling streets of New York City. The Man of the Yellowknives, also known as Copper Indian or Tatsaotine, wears a furskin cape and a rabbit-ear hat, adorned with feathers and beads. He clutches a knife in one hand, a symbol of his warrior status, while the other hand rests on his hip. The Man of the Sekani Nation, also known as Cluche or Rocky Mountain Indian, is equally impressive in his traditional attire. He wears a fur cap and a long, fur-lined coat, with a rabbit-skin draped over his shoulders. His face is painted with intricate designs, reflecting his connection to the land and his people. This engraving is based on an illustration by Charles Hamilton Smith, created as part of his Natural History of the Human Species, published in Edinburgh in 1848. The image offers a rare glimpse into the lives of these indigenous peoples during a time when they were often marginalized and misunderstood by European settlers. The hand-coloring adds a vibrant and striking quality to the engraving, bringing the subjects to life and highlighting the richness and diversity of their cultures. The Yellowknives and Sekani nations are part of the larger Athabaskan language group, with the Yellowknives being located in the Northwest Territories of Canada and the Sekani in the Rocky Mountains of British Columbia and Alberta. Despite the challenges they have faced throughout history, both nations continue to thrive and preserve their traditions, language, and connection to the land. This engraving serves as a reminder of their resilience and the importance of cultural representation and appreciation.
