Look at the word/name/title at the top of the picture. Thought this was interesting. This is from "De Nieuwe en Onbekende Weereld" done in 1671 by Dutch author Arnoldus Montanus.

Its been stated more than once that as a people we would come full circle. We introduced gold and silver as a form of commerce and mathematics to go by, we also butchered and enslaved other races as we grew twisted.
