Talk:Naso people

Comment
This article sounds like it is talking about the same people as the Teribes article. Is this true? Thanks Hmains 16:35, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

Robinson Crusoe
Robinson Crusoe is a fictional character created by Defoe. Possibly inspired by this or that specific castaway but definitely fictional. That the article presents it as an autobiography edited by Defoe is an incredibly bad sign. I have excised the ridiculous entries and reproduced them below. If anything is actually true it can be re-added later.

"It seems that the first mentioning of a few Térraba words appear in the autobiography of Robinson Crusoe whose adventures were edited by Daniel Defoe, and the book was published in 1719. The words “uvo” (old) and “kigí” (men, people) referred to the elders of Friday’s nation, according to the story. Crusoe reported that his true man Friday – that apparently belonged to the (cannibal) Térraba nation – had been informed about the white bearded people’s cruel conquest of Mexico in the past. Crusoe wrote that the event happened “beyond the Moon” but Friday must have meant that it took place so many months ago that it was beyond their reckoning.

Indeed, there is only one word in the Térraba language that refers to both “Moon” and “month”. Friday claimed that the Térraba were the strongest of the region’s native nations. Other historical sources agree with his claim. Further, according to Crusoe, Friday called the god of his nation “Benamuckee.” An additional linguistic record in The Farther Adventures of Robinson Crusoe is the crying of a group of cannibals when the colonists of the island started to destroy their boats. They shouted, “Oa, oa, waramokoa!” It may have meant, “No, not our boats!” (Or, “No, do not destroy them!”) The problem with these words is that they may have belonged to another tribe. The Térraba were not the only cannibal tribe that occasionally visited Cocos Island, if we suppose that Crusoe’s story has real foundations."

From Timeline

The governor Don Diego de le Haya wrote in 1719, in the year of the publication of Robinson Crusoe’s story, that they were also the most belligerent tribe in all America. (This is exactly what Friday has told to Crusoe. Also, Robinson Crusoe observed “that they were stark naked, and had not the least covering upon them.”) — Preceding unsigned comment added by MaserShark (talk • contribs) 02:32, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
