Description
-
An Indigenous village is shown from above. The village is located close to the coast and is comprised of four long structures arranged in a circle. The village is surrounded by both an inner and outer fence. The inner fence follows the angles of the structures within it, and the outer fence is a simple circle. There are several long poles with skulls mounted on the ends of them at both entrances in the outer fence. A group of Indigenous people are shown in the center of the village, and three canoes are anchored along the coast.
