The Marine Tradition of the Aborigines of Tierra del Fuego
The reconstruction of a Yamana-fashion bark canoe unveils the life-style of an extinct race that used to master the Fuegian channels dominating the waters of one of the most merciless regions in the world.
The present work is a thorough maritime ethnography study that confronts bark canoes and building techniques from different places around the world ranging from Australia to the Orinoco and from Newfoundland to the Solomon Islands. This volume includes unpublished photographs, various appendixes, terms from the Fuegian canoeists language, illustrations, maps and other contributions valuable both for experts and readers interested in the everyday life of a people vanished from the Earth for ever.
