Lil' guys!

I'm not sure what the context and inspiration were for this artwork, but their outfits and ethnic features mark the characters as men from the ancient Andean cultures. The cube shaped hat with exquisite embroidery is typical of the Wari / Huari civilisation that came before the more famous Inca Empire.

This artist on Twitter creates a mix of impressively researched indigenous character designs along with bewildering fetish content and in jokes.

Ecuador presenta la primera investigación sobre refugiados judíos en el país andino

🇪🇨 Entre 1933 y 1945, alrededor de 3.000 a 4.000 judíos, principalmente de Alemania, Austria, Checoslovaquia, Polonia y Rusia, llegaron a Ecuador como refugiados, huyendo del nazismo. Muchos de estos inmigrantes tenían una alta formación académica y estaban bien integrados en sus sociedades de origen. Sin quererlo, se convirtieron en figuras clave en el desarrollo económico, social y cultural del Ecuador durante la segunda mitad del siglo XX, destacándose en áreas como la arquitectura, la medicina y la industria farmacéutica. Esta historia fue documentada por el académico argentino Daniel Kers en la primera investigación sobre la migración judía en Ecuador, publicada por la Academia Nacional de Historia en 2018.

🇺🇸 Between 1933 and 1945, around 3,000 to 4,000 Jews, primarily from Germany, Austria, Czechoslovakia, Poland, and Russia, arrived in Ecuador as refugees, fleeing Nazism. Many of these immigrants were highly educated and well-integrated into their societies of origin. Unintentionally, they became key figures in Ecuador’s economic, social, and cultural development during the second half of the 20th century, excelling in fields like architecture, medicine, and the pharmaceutical industry. This history was documented by Argentine scholar Daniel Kers in the first investigation on Jewish migration to Ecuador, published by the National Academy of History in 2018.
