Ethnology of the Yuchi Indians (1909)

""Ethnology of the Yuchi Indians"" is a book written by Frank Gouldsmith Speck in 1909. The book is a comprehensive study of the Yuchi people, an indigenous group of Native Americans who lived in the southeastern United States. Speck, who was an anthropologist and ethnographer, conducted extensive fieldwork to gather information about the Yuchi people, their culture, and their way of life. The book covers a wide range of topics, including Yuchi history, religion, social organization, language, and material culture. Speck also provides detailed descriptions of Yuchi customs and ceremonies, such as their annual Green Corn Dance and their use of medicine bundles. Throughout the book, Speck emphasizes the importance of understanding the Yuchi people on their own terms, rather than through the lens of European or American culture. He also discusses the impact of colonialism and the forced relocation of the Yuchi people to Indian Territory in the 19th century. ""Ethnology of the Yuchi Indians"" is a valuable resource for scholars of Native American history and culture, as well as anyone interested in learning more about the Yuchi people and their way of life.This Book Is In English.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
