Wtf are they?
An obscure South American tribe the Spanish wiped out. They could survive in freezing temperatures naked and loved triangles.
>loved triangles
sounds like they were autistic
I'm quite offended
Selk'nam
They were a "tribe"? That inhabited in the extreme south of Chile and Argentina.
>This scares the American
Sell them some booze as usual.
How come Argentinians are so weird?
I'd gtfo immediately, looks like something out of silent hill..
You can't see something that was deleted from Earth anymore
How come the Mapuches never exterminated them before
I always found this very weird, the "what a coincidence aliens only abduct stupid farmers huh" doesnt this actually make alot of sense? i mean no one ends up believing them because they are stupid so it makes sense to abduct them since they can talk all they want and no one will beileve them
looks like that silent hill dude
"ayo wazzup homie?"
thats kind of spooky. im pretty sure they were in direct communication with aliens.
What pisses me off is that there are no color photos of them to see what those paintings looked like IRL
I found that
I read the dressed like that to represent spirits for some kind of ritual. I would run away from them if I ever saw this shit
Probably have some kind of panic attack, that shit is demonic.
Lmao it looks like they themselves are scared of what they are wearing
The one in the hammerhead outfit freaks me out.
>be a nice young spanish explorer out with some friends
>decide to check out patagonia
>finally arrive after a long journey
>suddenly this man runs out at you
Cool, thanks
>a nice young spanish explorer
>spanish explorer
>nice
they used these masks to beat the shit out and scary young dudes in rituals
I deleted the image, hope I don't get cursed
Sorry to spoil everyone's fun but they only look spooky because it's a black and white photo.
They don't even have body hair. How the fuck did they go naked in the snow?

They were actually pacific, other tribes used to hunt them for sport.
I imagine some of them were just curious on exploring unknown lands.
just bring a musket and rapier should be easy to exterminate them
>other tribes used to hunt them for sport.
>be Spanish explorer
>believe in vampires and ghosts
>go to unexplored land
>be alone in the bushes taking a shit
>appears from nothing and run after you
Curious ? Sure.
Nice ? Definitely and absolutely not
I feel like this would be counterproductive as creepy outfits would result Spanish in shooting them on sight out of fear
Fucking mapuches, man
It's not like they knew their outfits were creepy. Now I wonder they considered to be creepy.
spoopy
These pics make me really sad
It was for a ritual.
>Young males were called to a dark hut. There they would be attacked by "spirits", who were people dressed as supernatural beings. The children were taught to believe in and fear these spirits at childhood and were threatened by them in case they misbehaved.[citation needed] Their task in this rite of passage was to unmask the spirits; when the boys saw that the spirits were human, they were told a story of world creation related to the sun and moon. In a related story they were told that in the past women used to be disguised as spirits to control men. When the men discovered the masquerade, they in turn would threaten women as spirits. According to the men, the women never learned that the masked males were not truly spirits, but the males found out at the initiation rite.
>About 4,000 Selk'nam were alive in the mid-nineteenth century; by 1930 this had been reduced to about 100. Cattle breeders, farmers and gold-prospectors from Argentina, Chile, the UK and the USA had entered the region, and were joined by adventurers and other fortune seekers. The natives were plied with alcohol, deported and exterminated, with bounties paid to the most ruthless hunters.[1] The large ranchers tried to run off the Selk'nam, then began a campaign of extermination against them, with the compliance of the Argentine and Chilean governments. Large companies paid sheep farmers or militia a bounty for each Selk'nam dead, which was confirmed on presentation of a pair of hands or ears, or later a complete skull. They were given more for the death of a woman than a man.
Hmm interesting.
They kept warm by huddling around small fires when they could, including in their boats to stay warm. The name of "Tierra del Fuego" (land of fire) was based on the many fires seen by passing European explorers.
They made use of rock formations to shelter from the elements.
They covered themselves in animal grease.
Over time, they had evolved significantly higher metabolisms than average humans, allowing them to generate more internal body heat.
Their natural resting position was a deep squatting position, which reduced their surface area and helped to conserve heat.
Just like Slavs, they were found by Germanics naked and squatting before we learned them about clothes.
So that's why slavs squat...
holy shit, pokemon were in existence
They seem good people
they look like average trucker lesbians from helsinki
Fuck sad, this shit is suicide inducing, it's so depressing to know what happened to native americans everywhere and how no one seems to care.
>no one seems to care
Lots of people do, or at least pretend to
If those natives had a brain they woulda high tailed it the fuck out of there, but no, it was “their land”. So they died. The end
Well people are now starting to care a bit more. But yeah it was a different time where religion was prevalent in all cultures.
There was nothing preventing President Jackson from slaughtering the Southeastern natives. He had the firepower, numbers, and support but settled on forced relocation. The Trail of Tears was far more merciful than people let on, four thousand died along the route but Native American communities still live on in the West albeit small, when they could have been wiped from existence completely like their Northern counterparts.
Actually more people actually feel proud of wiping out them out now that the far right has become popular.
Lol and what’s your source on that, The Young Turks or your moms asshole?
I’m from a conservative state in a small conservative city and literally no one is proud of that, in fact injun culture is one of the few not white cultures that your middle-American right winger happens to appreciate
I'm leaning towards the Right. I'm not far Right but I do believe in reinforcing the borders, protecting personal liberties, and so forth. We shouldn't have eliminated the Native Americans. They weren't complete savages, you're thinking of the Central American Natives. We should have attempted some degree of co-operation and integration, maybe their own state. Their individual cultures were overall respectable, not to mention the heaps of knowledge and tales which could have been passed down to Americans for generations.
I think you're browsing Jow Forums a little too much or absorbing Left leaning media. Italian Fascism, for example, respected other cultures outside of Italy. It doesn't get any further right than Fascism. There was even an issue with Italian men bringing home Ethiopian women to marry. It's the idea of practicing cultures not native to your nation state where the problem arises, not disrespecting every single culture which isn't yours.
Nazism was Germanic supremacy. It's not surprising those who subscribe to National Socialism believe non-Germanic cultures ought to be eradicated. It's almost as if they deemed Mediterraneans and Slavs as subhuman savages, so what makes you think they'll view Non-Europeans as any different?
Dude, you pretty much posted all that shit no one wants to read, to basically prove that right wingers historically have appreciated other cultures. So what? I’m talking about TODAY, the middle class right wing of America. Current affairs.
Source on more people being proud of exterminating injuns or gtfo
I remember reading about them back in middle school, these creepy motherfuckers where nightmare fuel.
>They weren't complete savages, you're thinking of the Central American Natives.
mesoamericans developed a civilization to a degree north american natives never did
It's better that way.
Amerindians replacing eurangutans would be the best possible outcome.
Mexicans are already making it possible.
>mapuches
>patagonia
Are you retarded? the mapuches never set a foot on southern chile or southern argentina before the very late 1700's.
What a sad history.
