Description
Of Cannibals and Kings collects the very earliest accounts of the native peoples of the Americas, including selections from the descriptions of Columbus’s first two voyages; documents reflecting the initial colonial occupation in Haiti, Venezuela, and Guyana; and the first ethnographic account of the TaÃnos by the missionary Ramón Pané.
This primal anthropology directly guided a rapacious discovery of the lands of both wild cannibals and golden kings.
