Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Harsh racial segregation during the Jim Crow era prevented South Carolina's Indian groups from assimilating. Due to their three-fold genetic admixture, they were labeled with such fanciful names as Red Bones, Brass Ankles, Croatans, Turks, and not real Indians at all. For generations, South Carolina's remaining Indians struggled to avoid reduction to the oppressed social status of Negroes. Their desperation eventually fostered anti-Black sentiment within some of the groups, an affliction that still infects a few of the older community members. Generations have passed since the Jim Crow era. Today, the Palmetto State's Indians focus less on imagined racial purity and more on the welfare of their communities, preserving their customs, and honoring their ancient traditions. Much work remains to be done by and for all of the tribal groups of South Carolina. The tribes strive to convert state recognition, which now serves only as a morale booster, into a true vehicle to promote tribal educational, economic, and healthcare improvement. South Carolina's state-recognized tribes are now hard at work to accomplish this goal. When the author has spent many years traveling to Indian communities around the Southeast and talking to Indian elders, as Pony Hill has done, he must be admired not only for his authenticity, but also for his scholarship. This book, then, is where an authentic perspective is enhanced by thorough scholarship. -- John H. Moore, Ph.D, Anthropology Department, University of Florida. This is the third edition of Pony Hill's ground-breaking study of the Indian tribes of South Carolina. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - No group of Native Americans has figured more prominently in the history of South Carolina than the Catawba Nation. This tribe's unerring military, economic, and symbolic support for the fledgling Carolina colonies was crucial during early conflicts with hostile tribes, and eventually their struggle for Independence. While the Palmetto State unabashedly profited from this relationship with the Catawba Nation, the association was not mutually beneficial. In the hundred-year time span between 1740 and 1840, the population of the Catawba reservation decreased by more than seventy-five percent. At least half this decrease was due to the mortality of old age, accident, and disease. A significant portion of that population reduction, however, was the result of outmigration, as Catawba left the confines of the reservation to explore life in other areas. At various times in the Eighteenth and Nineteenth centuries, no more than a handful of Catawba Indians were physically residing on their ancient reservation. While thousands of pages have been dedicated to memorializing the history of those Catawba who remained, the pen of the historian has remained silent in regard to those Indian families and individuals who left the reservation. What happened to those Catawba who abandoned their ancient homeland Where did they ultimately settle down Did they continue to self-Identify as 'Catawba' or, in some respects even more importantly, were they recorded as 'Catawba' or even as 'Indian' by the census enumerator, tax collector, or court officials in these new areas This book attempts to answer these questions, and memorialize the documentation of those who became 'A Wandering Tribe.'.…
