Tierra
del Fuego - The Land of Fire. The fires were the camp fires of the Fuegian
Indians. In one version,Magellan saw smoke only and called it Tierra del Humo,
the Land of Smoke, but Charles V said there was nosmoke without fire and changed
the name... The Fuegians are dead and all the fires snuffed out. Only the
flares of oil rigs cast a pall over the night sky.
