An Indigenous group from Newfoundland (as identified by the author) prepare to go to war. The group marches in a procession with large drums made from animal skins stretched over a wooden frame and bones as drumsticks.

Most members of the group are barefoot and wear tunics, several have capes tied around their necks, and others wear headdresses of feathers or leaves.
