 PEARLS & THE AMERICAN ABORIGINES "SLAVE PEARL DIVERS" : 


PEARL FISHERIES OF VENEZUELA

 
THESE WERE SO EXPERT IN THE WORK THAT INDIVIDUALS SOLD FOR UPWARD OF
150 DUCATS EACH. 

WITH THEIR AID THE FISHERY PROSPERED SO GREATLY THAT 1515 A SETTLEMENT, CALLED NEW CADIZ, WAS ESTABLISHED ON CUBAGUA ISLANDS BY THE GOVERNOR OF HISPANIOLA, DIEGO COLUMBUS, SON OF THE DISCOVERER, 

THIS SMALL ISLAND WAS DRY AND DESOLATE, WITHOUT WATER OR WOOD, WHICH WERE BROUGHT FROM THE MAIN LAND, TWENTY MILES DISTANT, OR FROM MAGARITA ISLAND ABOUT THREE MILES TO THE NORTHWARD,

 AN INTERESTING DESCRIPTION OF THE MANNER OF SECURING THE PEARLS BY THESE EARLY ADVENTURERS WAS GIVEN BY
GONZALO FERNANDEZ DE OVIEDO Y VALDES 1478-1557) IN HIS "HISTORIA NATURAL Y GENERAL DE LAS INDIAS." WRITTEN LESS THAT THIRTY YEARS AFTER DISCOVERY OF THE MAIN LAND OF AMERICA.

A TRANSLATION OF THIS BOOK WAS PUBLISHED IN 1555 BY RICHARD EDEN IN HIS "DECADES IF THE NEW WORLD" FROM WHICH WE EXTRACT THE FOLLOWING ACCOUNT, 

THE RETENTION OF EDEN'S QUAINT PHRASEOLOGY SEEMING PERMISSIBLE OWING  TO THIS BEING ONE OF THE VERY EARLIEST BOOKS ON AMERICA.
