Image title
'The tombe of their Werowans or Cheiff Lordes'. Engraving showing the interior of a rectangular building of pole and mat construction, with curved roof. A row of nine naked corpses, the dead chiefs, are laid out on a raised platform, with the seated figure of an idol 'Kywash' placed on a small ledge against a wall. Under the platform, two skins are laid out, and a priest, who prays for the dead, tends a small fire to keep himself warm.
