Review of Light on the Path: The Anthropology and History of the Southeastern Indians by Pluckhahn and Etheridge
Southeastern Archaeology, Vol.25(2), pp.330-332
12/01/2006
Abstract
In a change from perhaps more obvious explorations of changes between the late prehistoric and early historic periods, Adam King considers continuities in societal and economic elements between Late Mississippian populations of the southern Appalachian region and early Creek Indian towns. Bowne provides an overview of his research on the Westo Indians, a refugee group displaced from the eastern Great Lakes in the middle seventeenth century and who, through an advantage afforded them by early access to firearms, quickly became a powerful group in the Southeast, feared by other Native groups, colonists, and traders alike.
