notes:
Text describes the llama and how it was used for the transport of ore in Peru. When overburdened the animals would sit down, and neither beatings nor kind words would make the animal get up again. If they ran away they had to be shot to recover the ore they were carrying. This work contains three different voyages; Pt. 1 is José de Acosta, Historie naturael ende morael van de Westersche Indien, Haarlem, 1598; Pt. 2 is Barent Janszoon Potgieter, Wijdtloopigh verhael van tgene de vijf schepen, Amsterdam, 1600, here entitled Relatio historica; the appendix and Pt. 3 is Olivier van Noort, Beschryvinghe van de voyagie, Rotterdam & Amsterdam, 1602, here entitled Additamentum nonae partis Americae. Theodor de Bry's America. Pt. 9. German.
