The story of the Kawésqar

Where is this place?

Imaju slobodu druze sto ti ocigledno nerazumes

When words come like wiped out, genocide, massacre, extinction also name of Europe comes.

far out they just got to wreck shit aye

Where there is no outside intervention the natives thrive.

Europeans never conquested that territory, they pass by many times but no colonies. The first successful settlement was made by the Chilean government in 1843 and they were responsible of their extinction, not the Europeans. Sadly late 1800 begging of the 1900 Chileans were killing kaweshkars

Its so amazing to know about them.

Mère nature est toujours assez gentille avec ceux qui comprennent et adoptent des mesures de prévention pour profiter et apprendre à vivre dans des conditions extrêmement difficiles. 💞

so sad that thay're all gone now

so cool!

Darwin’s book - voyage of the beagle - describes Tierra del Fuego and how they would cannibalise the old women when they needed food ... an amazing account of the area. He also depicts the South American continent- a good read, his description takes you to the places he visited! X

thought you might find this interesting 🧐

The indigenous people of Tierra del Fuego were very similar. Unfortunately, they too did not survive colonisation.
