It has been truly remarked that, in order of time, decoration precedes dress. A mong people who submit to great physical suffering that they may have themselves handsomely tattooed, extremes of temperature are borne with but little attempt at mitigation. Humboldt tells us that an Orinoco I ndian, though quite regardless of bodily comfort, will yet labor for a fortnight to purchase pigment wherewith to make himself admired; and that the same woman who would not hesitate to leave her hut without a fragment of clothing on, would not dare to commit such a breach of decorum as to go out unpainted. Yoyagers uniformly find that colored beads and trinkets are much more prized by wild tribes than are calicoes or broadcloths.
