EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Fortified Town of Pomeiooc" as depicted in the Admiranda Narratio, engraved by Theodore de Bry. Created between 1585-88, this colored engraving by John White offers a fascinating glimpse into the native American Indian settlement in Virginia. The image transports us to a time long ago, where we witness the daily life of the Pomeiooc tribe. The stockade surrounding their town stands tall and strong, providing protection against potential threats. Inside the walls, huts dot the landscape, serving as homes for these indigenous people. Intriguingly, a campfire burns brightly at the center of this bustling community. Its warm glow illuminates faces gathered around it - men and women engaged in conversation or perhaps sharing stories passed down through generations. As we delve deeper into this historical artifact, we learn that Thomas Hariot's text accompanies this illustration. It is part of Grands Voyages - an account detailing a journey to Virginia undertaken in 1585. This remarkable engraving not only captures our attention but also sparks curiosity about Native American culture and their way of life during this period. Through its intricate details and vivid colors, it invites us to explore further and gain insight into an era marked by resilience and cultural richness.
