notes:
Text describes the ancestry and current condition of the Botocudo people who lived in the states of Minas Gerais and Bahía. Their name is derived from the Portuguese word for plug, referring to the wooden plug these native Americans wore in their lower lips and ears. The chief is here shown wearing a cloak of anteater fur. At the time of Debret's writing, at least one group of Botocudo remained at war with the Portuguese.The lithographs in this book were made from drawings made by Debret during his fifteen-year residence (1816-1831) in Brazil.Image placed horizontally on page.Lithographer is probably Charles Etienne Pierre Motte (French printmaker and draftsman, 1785-1836).
