Print circa 1876 depicting the first landing of Christopher Columbus in the New World in 1492. It shows Columbus (c1451 - 1506) and his crew kneeling before a priest during a religious service as Native American Indians look on. Columbus had left the Spanish port of Palos on August 3 1492 with three ships - a carrack called Santa Maria, also known as Gallega (the Galician), plus two smaller caravels called Pinta (the Painted) and Santa Clara, nicknamed Nina. He famously reached the Americas on October 12 1492 - landing on a small island in the modern day Bahamas and naming it San Salvador. Engraving by George S Lang, based on a work by artist John James Barralet (c1747 - 1815).

Vintage photo circa 1926 showing a North American Cree Indian gathering moss. The image, entitled "Moss for the baby bags", was captured by Edward S Curtis (1868 - 1952) as part of his project "The North American Indian". Curtis took thousands of pictures of over 80 Indian tribes to be published in 20 volumes from 1907 - 1930 with the aim of documenting as much Native American Indian traditional life as possible before that way of life disappeared. Much of the material he obtained is the only recorded history of those times. This particular image appeared in Volume 18 and the exact location where the picture was taken is unknown. Plains Indians carried their babies in a bag made of hide and filled with dry moss - the bag was tied to a cradle board which in turn was tied to the mother's back.

Photo taken 1905 showing three Native American Indians on horseback. The image, entitled "Sioux Chiefs", was captured by Edward S Curtis (1868 - 1952) as part of his project "The North American Indian". Curtis took thousands of pictures of over 80 Indian tribes to be published in 20 volumes from 1907 - 1930 with the aim of documenting as much Native American Indian traditional life as possible before that way of life disappeared. Much of the material he obtained is the only recorded history of those times. This particular image appeared in Volume 3 in 1908. The Sioux today are scattered across various reservations, communities and reserves in the Dakotas, Montana, Minnesota, Nebraska, Manitoba and souther Saskatchewan in Canada.

Photo taken in 1873 of a group of Navajo Indians, possibly a family, next to a dwelling in Canon de Chelle (Canyon de Chelly), New Mexico Territory (now Arizona), near the old Fort Defiance. A squaw is weaving blankets on a native loom, a man is holding a bow and arrow in the foreground and an older man in the background is looking at the camera with apparent suspicion. The image, entitled "Aboriginal life among the Navajo Indians", was captured by Timothy H O'Sullivan (1840 - 1882) as part of the Wheeler Survey west of the 100th meridian. Authorised by the US Congress, the Wheeler Survey was a major survey of the southwestern United States in the late nineteenth century. It was tasked with making topographical maps of the area and also aimed to examine the geology and to discover the numbers, habits and disposition of Indians in the region. The Navajo, who refer to themselves as Diné ("the people") in their native language, are the second largest Native American tribe of Northern America.
