EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Village of the Susquehanna People, Susquehanna River" takes us back in time to the early 18th century. The engraving detail, published as an inset in Hermann Moll's "A New map of the north parts of American claimed by France" in 1720, offers a glimpse into the lives of the indigenous people who once inhabited this region. The village depicted here is believed to be Fort Susquehannock, located south from the Great Lake region. While there were other forts belonging to the Susquehannock tribe on Maryland's Western Shore, it remains uncertain if this particular one is represented in this picture. The Susquehannock tribe was Iroquoian-speaking but distinct from the Iroquois Confederacy. They resided primarily in Pennsylvania and northern Maryland. In this image, we see a community enclosed by wooden fencing and traditional dwellings known as longhouses. The architecture reflects their unique culture and way of life. Surrounding these structures are lush woodlands teeming with wildlife. Cattle graze peacefully nearby while birds soar above, adding a sense of tranquility to this scene frozen in time. This print not only captures a moment from history but also serves as a reminder of America's rich Native American heritage. Displayed against a backdrop devoid of color or modernity, it allows us to appreciate both the simplicity and complexity that existed within these tribal communities centuries ago. It serves as an invitation for reflection on our past and recognition of those who came before us on this land we now call home.
