EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Ritual Friendship Dance in the Indian Village Secota or Secoton," is a captivating illustration from the "Fida tamen narratio Admiranda" or "Wonderful and True Report" of the expedition to Virginia led by Walter Raleigh in 1585. The image was created by Theodor de Bry based on watercolors by John White and published in the series "Grand Voyages or America" in Frankfurt in 1590. The scene depicts a ritual dance taking place in an Indian village, likely located in present-day North Carolina. The Native Americans are shown engaging in a friendly dance, with some holding hands and others playing musical instruments or drumming. The dance is believed to have symbolized the strengthening of alliances and the fostering of peace between different tribes. Theodor de Bry was a prominent engraver and publisher of the Early Modern Era, known for his detailed and accurate depictions of the New World. This engraving, along with others in the series, played a significant role in shaping European perceptions of the Americas and its indigenous peoples. The image provides a unique glimpse into the cultural practices of the Secota or Secoton people, offering valuable insights into their way of life and social customs. This beautiful and intriguing print is part of the rich historical collection of the Bibliothèque du service historique de la Marine in Paris, France. It serves as a testament to the enduring fascination with the New World and the desire to explore and document the unknown.
