1967BOOKS005891ix319 pages with 30 tables 43 figures 57 plates and appendix. Octavo 9" x 5 7/8" bound in original publisher's wrappers with black lettering. From the library of Dr Reynold J Ruppe. Anthropological Papers Museum of Anthropology University of Michigan Number 30. First edition.<br /><br />The Juntunen Site also known as 20MK1 is an archaeological site located on the western tip of Bois Blanc Island. The Juntunen site is located on a low sand beach about 600 feet from and 17 feet above the current lakeshore. The site was a large seasonal fishing camp covering approximately 2 acres. It was likely a seasonal fall fishing village similar to the nearby Scott Point Site. The site also contains five ossuaries plus an infant burial and additional remains collected from the surface. The site was used during the Late Woodland period probably over a period of time between 900 and 1400 AD. The burials primarily dated from 1200 to 1400 AD. The frequent but seasonal occupation of the site led to a stratified layering of archaeological remains at the site consisting of up to 25 separate layers. The Juntunen Site was discovered in 1932 by Robert Braidwood of the University of Michigan who found human remains eroding from the surface of a group of mounds. Excavations were carried out over the next few years. Mr. Charles Juntunen the property owner of the site discovered more remains in 1959 while bulldozing a road. Juntunen contacted The University of Michigan and the University's Alan McPherron and James Griffin conducted multiple excavations.<br /><br />Dr Reynold J.

"Justin Winsor calls this work the 'earliest account of South Carolina cast in a sustained retrospective spirit'. Hewatt an Englishman who at one time lived at Charleston was a keen collector of historical documents". Streeter II 1133. "In Volume I Hewatt gives a sympathetic and balanced account of Indian life and customs based in part on his own observations. He describes the climate soil natural resources fauna snakes and insects; how to make turpentine tar and pitch; and how to cultivate silk cotton and especially rice. In Volume II he describes and criticizes slavery in the colonies and the treatment of slaves; he maintains that slaves should be given some instruction in morals and religion. He discusses diseases in Carolina and describes the cultivation of indigo in some detail. His factual account of the 'present state and condition of the colony' probably refers to the latter 1760s or early 1770s; he quotes some statistics of 1776." Clark I 225. De Renne 217. Turnbull I 223. <br><br>ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Alexander Hewatt came to Charleston in 1763 as minister of the Scots First Presbyterian Church there. Fascinated with the history of South Carolina he soon became a keen collector of historical documents. When the British fleet arrived at Charleston in 1776 Hewatt and other ministers were required to renounce their loyalty to the king. When he refused Hewatt was given sixty days to leave the colony. He sailed for Great Britain where he devoted the next two years to completing his history. In 1780 he was awarded the Doctor of Divinity form the University of Edinburgh an indication of the esteem in which he and his work were held. "Hewatt's account reflects the influence of William Robertson and the Scottish school of historiography. less concerned with a strict chronology of events Hewatt instead focused on the interrelatedness of those events and their various causes and effects. His goal in doing so was to provide moral political and practical instruction to the colonists and to those in England" both of whom he hoped would see the importance of continuing South Carolina's close ties to the Crown" ANB. The work includes detailed descriptions of the climate topography and fauna of South Carolina as well as discussions of slavery there. He warned that the mistreatment of slaves was likely to "fire them with desires of liberty and vengeance." Chapter 5 in the first volume includes a full account of the Yamasee War while chapter 10 is devoted to the war with the Cherokee. <br><br>CONDITION: This set is overall VG with general shelf wear.
