The Historical Magazine, and Notes and Queries Concerning the Antiquities, History and Biography of America, 1858, Vol. 2 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book takes a sweeping, fresh look into a people and culture that existed hundreds of years prior to European settlement on the North American continent. It examines the Timuqua, an American Indian people who lived in what is now the southeast United States. Using unconventional sources - from Spanish clerical works to archaeological findings - the author presents a unique vantage point into the Timuquana language, a complex and detailed language that was eventually lost entirely. The book explores the Timuqua on a wide scale, detailing their government and social structure, religious beliefs, ritual practices, art and technology, and of course, their sophisticated language, all while positioning them within the broader context of North American tribal communities and pre-Columbian Southeastern culture. By presenting a wealth of knowledge into the Timuqua way of life, this text offers invaluable insights into the historical, anthropological, and linguistic dimensions of this ancient American Indian civilization.
