notes:
Text describes how Staden was shown the chiefs discussing whether or not to kill him in the evening. Staden looked at the moon and said that he perceived the moon was going to rain down wrath on the chiefs houses. Hans Staden was a German soldier who traveled twice to Brazil on Portuguese ships. On his second trip in 1522, he was shipwrecked and captured by the Tupinamba, also known as the Tuppin Imba or Tupi, a cannibalistic Brazilian tribe. Image title taken from chapter title.
