EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "DE SOTO: ALABAMA NATIVE AMERICANS" takes us back to a significant moment in history - the expedition of Hernando de Soto and his encounter with the Alabama Native Americans. The image showcases an aerial view of the besiegement of the Native American encampment at Mauvila (or Mabila) in 1540. In this woodcut from Herrara y Tordelsillas Historia, created in 1601, we witness a clash between two worlds. On one side, we see the Spanish conquistadors led by Hernando de Soto on horseback, armed with cannons and artillerymen ready for warfare. On the other side are brave Alabama Native Americans defending their land and way of life. The composition captures both the equestrian prowess of De Soto's men as they navigate through unfamiliar terrain and the resilience of the indigenous people who stand united against foreign invaders. It is a visual representation of power dynamics during this age of discovery. This image not only serves as a historical document but also reflects upon themes such as colonialism, exploration, conflict, and cultural exchange. It reminds us that history is complex and multifaceted; it is essential to explore different perspectives to gain a comprehensive understanding. Through this remarkable woodcut print, we are transported back in time to witness an intense moment where cultures collided amidst vast landscapes – forever shaping our collective past.
