EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Maaeata and Caledonian men of the pre-Roman era" takes us back to ancient times in North Britain. The print showcases two fierce warriors, representing the Maaeata and Caledonian tribes, who inhabited the plains and forests of this region before Roman influence. The man on the left is a Catini warrior, holding a cat-shaped club with four spikes. His body is adorned with intricate blue woad tattoos, symbolizing his bravery and tribal affiliation. On the right stands a Caledonian warrior wielding an aseth (spear), also covered in striking blue woad tattoos. Their traditional costumes reflect their cultural heritage and demonstrate their connection to nature. This handcoloured aquatint engraving beautifully captures every detail of their attire, from the elaborate patterns on their garments to their unique accessories. The artist Charles Hamilton Smith skillfully illustrates these native inhabitants' strength and resilience through his meticulous attention to detail. This artwork is part of Samuel Meyrick's renowned publication "Costume of the Original Inhabitants of British Islands" from 1821. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we are transported back in time to witness the rich traditions and customs of these ancient Celtic populations. It serves as a reminder of our shared human history and invites us to appreciate the diversity that has shaped our world today.
