Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Indian History on the Susquehanna: Based on Rare and Original Documents, and Accompanied A copy of the date of 1624 was produced during this trial It was claimed that in the Maryland charter the lands granted Lord Baltimore were so bounded by the help of Capt Smith's said book and map of Virginia, and no other, for that map only, and no other then extant, has all the names agreeable to those mentioned and used in said patent Hence, Smiths map helped to cradle Delaware, and played its part in determining the famous "Mason and Dixon's Line." It was certainly the first effort to map any part of our present State, Penria Arch. N, S, vol, vii 315, 322, and 340.) It is proper here also to mention the other publications of Smith and his contemporaries, which in any way bear upon the Susquehanna exploration. "The True Relation, etc., London, 1608, has nineteen unpaged leaves and gives an account of the colony covering the first thirteen months from April 26, 1607. This has been reprinted with notes by Charles Deane, Boston, 1864. The vessel that took the manuscript to England left the same day that Smith started on his first voyage up the bay, and hence it contains nothing about that discovery. As early as 1612, there was also published at Oxford a tract called "A Map of Virginia," etc., with a description of the country by Smith, 48 pages, and an appendix by other writers, 110 pages. The map and that part of this Oxford, tract which was written by Smith himself, was republished, with but few variations, in the "Generall Historie," pages 21 to 96; but the part written by the others was much changed and amplified. The "True Relation" is not thus used in making up the "General Historie," because, as some suppose, it could not be made to fit the story of Pocahontas saving his brains from the murderous club of Powhatan, which first appeared in that book. What Smith has told us of the Susquehannocks, was, therefore, substantially written and mapped in the Oxford tract. It appears that this map, and the "annexed relation of the countries and nations," was sent home by Smith soon after his re turn from the Susquehanna explorations in 1608, but was not printed until 1612, which was a couple of years after his return to England, and its publication must have passed under his eye.

On the left side are two arrows crossed like a letter X. Underneath are the head and shoulders of an animal with ears erect, probably intended to represent a fox. On the obverse side of the stone is a figure having the appearance of an Indian papoose in a wicker basket or case. -the date, I 749, inscribed on one side, is of interest. The antiquity of the relic is probably much greater than the date would indicate. It must have been highly prized by the Indians.

This book was released on 2013-05-23 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This first volume in the new Stories of the Susquehanna Valley series describes the Native American presence in the Susquehanna River Valley, a key crossroads of the old Eastern Woodlands between the Great Lakes and the Chesapeake Bay in northern Appalachia. Combining archaeology, history, cultural anthropology, and the study of contemporary Native American issues, contributors describe what is known about the Native Americans from their earliest known presence in the valley to the contact era with Europeans. They also explore the subsequent consequences of that contact for Native peoples, including the removal, forced or voluntary, of many from the valley, in what became a chilling prototype for attempted genocide across the continent. Euro-American history asserted that there were no native people left in Pennsylvania (the center of the Susquehanna watershed) after the American Revolution. But with revived Native American cultural consciousness in the late twentieth century, Pennsylvanians of native ancestry began to take pride in and reclaim their heritage. This book also tells their stories, including efforts to revive Native cultures in the watershed, and Native perspectives on its ecological restoration. While focused on the Susquehanna River Valley, this collection also discusses topics of national significance for Native Americans and those interested in their cultures.

Further proving this early intercourse and trade between the French and Susquehannocks, Mr. Guss says on the same page, The iron hatchets which Smith (in 1608) found in the posses sion of the Tockwocks (that is Nan ticokes) they informed him they had received from the Susquehannocks; and they in turn, Smith says, inform ed him that 'from the French they had their hatchets.' Thus some years ibefore 1608 the Susquehannocks were in commercial intercourse with the French. And again this same author at the same page says, The Sus quehannocks were a ruling tribe and forced trade privileges from other In ldian tribes. Powhatan gave this fierce and mighty nation the name of -the Pocoughtronack Indians. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
