Ona life
The first sequence shows an Ona family on the move. The men are in front and carry their bows. They are followed by their women who carry the family’s household possessions and babies. Note the sumptuous guanaco furs that are being worn by all. Of the four Fuegian tribes, only the Dna and the Haush dressed against the cold in this way. The other two tribes, the Yamana and the Kawesqar customarily went naked despite the ferocious wind and cold.
An Ona man then shows how a small hut is built, followed by shots showing Ona families living in a number of rather more substantial huts.
