Manteo. Wanchese. Chicamacomico. These place names along today's Outer Banks are a testament to the Indigenous communities that thrived for generations along the Carolina coast. Though most sources for understanding these communities were written by European settlers who began to arrive in the late sixteenth century, those sources nevertheless offer a fascinating record of the region's Algonquian-speaking people. Here, drawing on decades of experience researching the ethnohistory of the coastal mid-Atlantic, Helen Rountree reconstructs the Indigenous world the Roanoke colonists encountered in the 1580s"-- Provided by publisher Notes Description based upon print version of record Subject Algonquian Indians -- North Carolina -- Outer Banks -- Civilization Algonquian Indians -- North Carolina -- Outer Banks -- History -- 16th century Algonquian Indians -- First contact with other peoples -- North Carolina -- Outer Banks -- History -- 16th century Cultural fusion -- North Carolina -- Outer Banks -- History -- 16th century SOCIAL SCIENCE / Ethnic Studies / Native American Studies Cultural fusion Algonquian Indians -- First contact with other peoples Algonquian Indians SUBJECT Outer Banks (N.C.) -- History -- 16th century Subject North Carolina -- Outer Banks Genre/Form History Form Electronic book Author Taukchiray, Wes, 1948- author.
