Description: A battle is shown between two groups of Indigenous people. The groups are armed with bows and arrows, clubs, and spears. The group on the left stands in a square formation with a gap in the middle. The French colonists fight on the side of Chief Outina (pictured in the middle of the group on the left). In the foreground, colonists shoot at Indigenous men on the opposing side with rifles. This illustration is identical to the one found on page 61 of Frankfurt 1591, but colored.
