• "The building of substantial structures for drying and smoking shellfish would have been an unnecessary and therefore unlikely expenditure of energy unless other, bulkier types of meat or fish were to be preserved at the same time.  Shellfish could have been sun-dried rapidly by shucking them and spreading the shucked meat on birch-bark sheets in the sun.  For smoking, stringing small pieces of meat such as shellfish on spruce roots and hanging them over a fire, either outside our inside the wigwam, would have been the most efficient method of preservation and storage (see Willoughby, 1935:211-212 for a discussion and ethnographic substantiation of these points).  None of these methods would necessarily leave discernible archaeological traces except for the deposits of shucked shells themselves."

• "Faunal samples from three multicomponent coastal sites, dating ca. A.D. 200-A.D. 1150, indicate that all components represent late winter-early spring occupations.  There is no evidence for summer coastal occupation." (pg. 3).
• "Historic sources indicate that by ca. A.D. 1550 aboriginal populations exploited interior resources during late winter and early spring and coastal ones during late spring and summer.  Possible explanations of this change in settlement systems include prehistoric climatic change and early European trade influences." (pg. 3).

• "By 4500 B.P. a relatively large population exploiting marine and riverine resources, with special emphasis upon maritime hunting, was established.  This population had close cognates as far north as Newfoundland." (pg. 35).
• "After c. 3700 B.P. a distinctly different archaeological pattern suddenly appears in western and central Maine.  The technology and mortuary ceremonialism of this group are derived from the Susquehanna tradition and apparently replace earlier native patterns." (pg. 35).

• This illustrates one of the ironies of the study of the history of Maine: the new technology of isotopic (bone, etc.) analyses for the evaluation of the diets of prehistoric Native Americans is enthusiastically embraced by Maine archaeologists while at the same time isotopic analysis of the radiological footprint of the Maine Yankee Atomic Power Company is strictly prohibited.

• Defines the word "muskingum" as elk's eyes or deer eyes.
• Donahue, in The Kingdom in Montville, Maine, has this comment about the word muskingum: "town records as far back as 1807 refer to the area as Muskingum.  Local legend has it that some of the early settlers were from Ireland (hence the name of the New Ireland Road) who had spent time along the Muskingum river in southeastern Ohio.  Their pronunciation of the name was interpreted by other locals as 'Moose Kingdom' - later shortened to the Kingdom" (pg. 2).
• It is unlikely that Irish immigrants first moved to Ohio in 1800 and then returned to settle Montville by 1807.  Muskingum is instead one among many surviving Indian place names.

• "These 13 sites... fall into two rather amorphous clusters, one that includes the Taunton drainage and Buzzards Bay, the other on the outer Cape Cod.  These clusters roughly coincide with the seventeenth-century Wampanoag and Nauset subgroups.  Second, not only is there no pattern of village movement, virtually no village sites are known.  Nearly half of these locations are burials.  The rest are midden, or refuse deposits, in which small quantities of European material have been recovered.  It should be noted that the quantities of European materials from most of these sites are very small.  To sum up, the protohistoric period along the southern New England coast is, archaeologically speaking, almost invisible." (pg. 35).
• "Contrary to much of the existing literature (Willoughby 1935:273; Salwen 1978:166; Snow 1980:29-30), marine shell beads are a rare occurrence on Late Woodland and sixteenth-century Pokanoket sites. ...widespread usage does not occur until the intensification of contact and trade early in the seventeenth century. ...For the Pokanoket, the making an using of 'wampum' (in either discoidal or tubular form) was a seventeenth-century phenomenon." (pg. 41).
• "The one exception to this pattern of profound localism is that the Pokanoket may have been involved in an exchange network that brought native copper down the coast from Nova Scotia.  This network appears to have operated during the Middle and Late Woodland periods and may have continued until the early seventeenth century." (pg. 41).
• "...the system of exchange and trade that operated in the Northeast was far more complex, dynamic, and interactive than is generally realized." (pg. 42).

• These quotes are from a transcript of a Nov. 16, 1899 Maine Historical Society meeting.
• "By the supplies received from the fishing vessels at and near Damariscove the Pilgrims were enabled to subsist, though most frugally, until the welcome time of harvest arrived. But the corn they then obtained did not furnish the colonists with a full year's supply, and there would have been hunger in their log-cabins, if they had not obtained subsistence from the neighboring Indians." (pg. 7).
• "The boat in which the corn was carried for this venture was one of two which the carpenter of the Pilgrims had built during the preceding year. 'They had a little deck over her midships to keepe ye corne drie,' says Bradford, 'but ye men were faine to stand it out all weathers without shelter; and ye time of ye year begins to growe tempestuous.' Mr. Edward Winslow was in charge of this Kennebec venture. Proceeding up the river, he found the Indians exceedingly well disposed, and had no difficulty in exchanging his store of corn for beaver, of which he obtained seven hundred pounds. When Winslow at length dropped down the river on his return homeward, he had laid the foundations of an exceedingly profitable trade, and he made his way back to Plymouth with high hopes that from this trade the colony would be able to discharge ere long its financial obligations in London. These hopes were not doomed to dissappointment. The sight of the beaver, as Winslow and his boat's crew landed at Plymouth the proceeds of this Kennebec venture, was one with which the Pilgrims became more and more familiar as the years went by." (pg. 9).
• "After they had thus firmly established themselves on the Kennebec, Bradford and his associates came into possession of a trading house on the Penobscot. In 1629, some of the English merchant adventurers, who were interested in the Pilgrim enterprise, entered into business relations with one Edward Ashley and furnished him with goods for trading purposes." (pg. 17).
• "According to Bradford, between November, 1631, and June, 24, 1636, the Pilgrims sent to England 12,530 pounds of beaver, the most of which was obtained from the Indians on the Kennebec. It was from the sale of this beaver in a great measure that they were able at length to extricate themselves from the financial difficulties in which they had become involved through their London agents. But their troubles at Penobscot were not ended. At the trading house there they suffered a still greater loss from the French in 1635. Chevalier Charles de Menou, or as he is usually styled D'Aulnay Charnisay, appeared one day in the harbor... His orders were to expel the English as far as Pemaquid." (pg. 23).

• "The findings suggest that: (1) shifts in settlement pattern to multicomponent central-base camps, originally called 'villages,' first developed in coastal New York during the Middle to Late Woodland period; and (2) the change process correlates with new intensified subsistence strategies before maize horticulture or European contact, new forms of burial ceremonialism, and new production of shell bead-blanks for long-distance trade.  The project underscores the value of using old museum collections to address new theoretical questions." (pg. 1).
• "The traditional paradigm holds that sedentism increased in the Late Woodland (ca. A.D. 1000-1600) after maize or some maize-marine food combination improved subsistence so as to sustain large populations year round.  Archaeological maize, however, is scarce." (pg. 2).
• "'Indian maize' was in fact scarce enough in local townships in the seventeenth century to serve as colonial barter; drawn from inland and southern sources it was commonly traded to local Indians at double the price for colonists!  Thus, the archaeological, documentary, and agronomical evidence collectively offer no support for the traditional 'maize' explanation for prehistoric 'village' development in coastal New York, an anomaly noted earlier by Kroeber (1963: 147-148)." (pg. 2).
• A particularly relevant study with respect to occupation of coastal Maine, where increasingly centralized, sedentary settlement patterns were based on the exploitation of rich coastal marine resources and not on extensive maize production.

• "Some of the old writers, as Charlevoix, Abbe Raynal, and La Hontan, as indeed some of the later ones, call all the natives east of the Piscataqua (except the Micmacs or Nova Scotia Indians) Abenaquies.  Gallatin, Williamson, and some others, make two great divisions -- Abnakis, and Etchemins or Etetchemins, i.e. 'canoe-men.'  Under the Abnakis are usually included the Sokokis, or Saco Indians; the Anasagunticooks, or Androscoggin tribe; the Wawenocs, who dwelt along the coast from Merry-meeting bay to the St. George's; and the Canibas, or Kenabes, who occupied the valley of the Kennebec, and who were again divided into the Norridgewocks, the Taconnets, about Waterville, and the Cushnocs, about Augusta." (pg. 20).
• "Under the Etchemins are generally reckoned the Tarratines, or Penobscots (which some writers are at a loss whether to class with the Abnakis or Etchemins), the Passamaquoddys, and the Marachites or St. John's tribe." (pg. 20-21).
• "Of all the tribes of Maine, the Penobscots and Passamaquoddys, who probably constitute half of the whole Indian population of New England, alone remain." (pg. 21).
• "...that the Anasagunticooks claimed dominion along the Androscoggin, from its sources to Merry-meeting bay -- that they took part in the ravages during Phillip's war at Pemaquid and along Casco bay -- that, in 1744, 160 warriors remained, in 1750, most of the tribe joined the St. Francis Indians, and, at the time of the Revolution, about forty might be found scattered among the islands and along the course of the river." (pg. 21).
• "...that the Wawenocs or Sheepscot Indians were the immediate subjects of the Great Bashaba, whose residence was near Pemaquid, and who was slain in the war with the Tarratines, the power of the tribe being then broken -- that, in 1747, but two or three families were left here, the remnant having gone to Canada." (pg. 21).
• "...that the Canibas, more usually called the Norridgewocks, because most of them resided here, were a brave, and yet docile people.  They tell us of the great success of the Jesuit missionaries among them, and especially of Gabriel Druillettes, who first came in 1646, of James Bigot in 1688, and of Sebastian Rasles from 1685 to 1724 [when Norridgewock was destroyed by the English]."

• In William Williamson's History of the State of Maine, the Sokokis are identified as that tribe inhabiting the Saco River valley.  This error was perpetuated in Maine history books until Gordon Day correctly identified them as inhabitants of the Connecticut River Valley at Northfield, MA.  The correct identification for the Indians of the Saco River is Pequawkets.

'The river is more than 40 leagues wide at its entrance and retains its width some thirty or forty leagues.  It is full of Islands, which stretch some ten or twelve leagues into the sea. ... Fifteen leagues within this river there is a town called Norombega, with clever inhabitants, who trade in furs of all sorts; the town folk are dressed in furs, wearing sable. ... The people use many words which sound like Latin.  They worship the sun.  They are tall and handsome in form.  The land of Norombega lie high and is well situated.' (DeCosta, 1890)" (pg. 99).

• 1744. "As the St. John's Indians were concerned in the attack upon Annapolis, it was feared that the other eastern Indians would be disposed also to join their old allies in a new effort against the English ; especially as all the Etechemin tribes, whose country extended from the Penobscot to the St. Johns, formed, by their own account, one and the same people. War was therefore declared against all the Indians east of the Passamaquoddy ; and those to the west of that river were forbidden to hold any intercourse with them." (pg. 71-72).
• "In 1804, according to the treasurer's book, the town [of Warren] first began to derive a small revenue from the oyster fishery ; although a law for protecting such fisheries, and allowing selectmen to impose conditions upon the taking of them by people of other places, had been passed as early as 1796.  In early times, oysters abounded in the lower part of the town, both in St. George's and Oyster rivers; and vessels from Portsmouth and other places, used to come, and carry off whole cargoes of them. After the passage of the above mentioned law, fewer vessels came for them.  They were already on the decline, either from saw-dust washed down from the mills, as some suppose, or from other causes not ascertained ; and they have now become so scarce that few take the trouble to search for them.  Small sums were occasionally paid into the treasury for these fish, till 1813."

• "In the Midwest, as elsewhere in the New World, there seems to have been a long transition period during which cultigens slowly became incorporated into the diet, and then a radical transformation of diet and economy, after which people relied on cultigens for a significant proportion of their food.  New Englanders, living in a region at the very northern limits of maize agriculture, should be expected to have been especially cautious in switching over to reliance on cultigens."

But in the first decade and a half of the 1600's, the greatest ETCHEMIN overlord, Bashaba, lived on the Penobscot River, in what now is (and is shown on Kroeber's map) the heart of PENOBSCOT territory, while his authority spread to the Saco River and his influence extended far into ABNAKI and PENNACOOK lands.  Later, Bashaba's successors (including Madockawando) continued the ETCHEMIN overlordship, but of ever-less-vast domains." pg. 14-15.

• While most of this text traces the evolution of the Industrial Revolution in New England to the current ecological crisis pertaining to chemical fallout issues, the first several chapters contain important observations pertaining to Native Americans in New England.
• Muir's primary observation is that hunting and gathering tribes maintained a viable equilibrium by limiting population growth and living within their resources.  Muir notes that when the population outgrew the supply of game animals, there was a shift from hunting to harvesting shellfish.  She also notes the large oyster shell heaps at Damariscotta and implies they may signify the impoverishment of the hunting and gathering tribes living north of the Kennebec. (pg. 9).
• Muir has this comment on the evolution of agricultural communities in southern New England "The change from hunting and gathering to depending on crops for half the annual food supply was made not suddenly or even in a single generation, but over the course of decades and centuries.  It was a choice that redounded to enforce the original decision.  A population growing too large to sustain itself by gathering the bounty of nature chooses to cultivate and store crops for the lean season.  The surplus thus produced enables the population to grow, which compels a more intensive agriculture, which results in population growth, which compels more intensive cultivation, which results in ..." (pg. 11-12).
• Frequently citing Dean Snow, Muir inadvertently perpetuates the anomalous deletion of the Wawenoc Indian from contemporary ethnohistoric writings.  "North of the Kennebec, where corn was not grown, they lived as Europeans could live only in dreams: by plucking fruit and chasing the wild buck in the greenwood.  It was that rare case of reality approaching idyll." (pg. 15).
• Not at all central to the purpose of Muir's important book, but still of interest to anyone concerned with the history of Native Americans in Maine is the question of the status of the Wawenoc Indians living east of the Kennebec River.  The traditional practice by Native Americans of burning the under foliage of the coastal forests to open it for productive hunting as well as for agricultural use that both Muir and Cronon (Changes in the Land) describe also may apply to that small segment of the Maine coast that lies between the Kennebec and the Penobscot rivers.  Muir, however, continues to rely on Dean Snow who in the Archaeology of New England designates the many Wawenoc villages between the Kennebec and Penobscot rivers as Kennebec and Penobscot Indian villages, effectively eliminating the Wawenocs from current history texts.
• For additional comments see the annotations on this book in the Industrial Revolution bibliography and in the Norumbega bioregion changes in the land bibliography.

Parker, Arlita Dodge. (1925). A History of Pemaquid with sketches of Monhegan, Popham, Castine. Macdonald & Evans, Boston, MA.

• "The Pemaquid country was first known to Englishmen, so far as any written narrative relates, when it was visited by George Waymouth and his men, twenty-nine in number, June 3, 1605.  Waymouth's ship was not the first that had skirted this rocky shore, but it was the first English ship that had come near enough to the Pemaquid peninsula to pass under the very eyes of that tribe of the 'Abenakis,' of eastern savages, know as 'Wawenocks.'" (pg. 7).
• "It was on the afternoon of May 30th [1605] that Waymouth's men first saw the savages.  They were Wawenock braves who late in May had left their wigwams in Pemaquid to go 'fishing and fowling' down the shores of the St. George's region." (pg. 9).
• "Griffin returned to the ship to report that there were 'two hundred and eighty-three salvages, every one with his bowe and arrowes, with their dogges and wolves, which they keepe tame at command,' and 'not anything to exchange at all.'  The English, somewhat staggered by the great number of savages as compared with their own company, became alarmed, and suspected treachery." (pg. 11).
• "'Wherefore, after good advice taken, we determined so soone as we could to take some of them, least (being suspitious we had discovered their plots) they should absent themselves from us.'  On this pretext, they captured five savages." (pg. 11).
• "In July, 1605, ... Champlain sailed up the Sheepscot to the present Wiscasset Point, where he entered into an alliance with some friendly Indians, probably the Wawenocks, the same tribe with which Waymouth treated.  By the back river he reached the Kennebec." (pg. 15).
• "Champlain makes one reference to the Waymouth ship.  He says that Anasou, a native, told him while in the Kennebec, 'that there was a ship ten leagues off the harbor which was engaged in fishing, and that those on board her had killed five savages of this river, under cover of friendship." (pg. 15).
• "The captives told Gorges of the 'goodly rivers' and the stately harbors' of America, of the different savage tribes and where they were seated, and awakened in his soul an interest in the new world which did not perish with the years." (pg. 16).
• "Purchas makes the 'Pemaquid' one of the nine rivers that water the dominions of the Bashaba in a strange land called 'Mavooshen,' confusing the river perhaps with the Penobscot, while Strachey and Gorges apply the name 'Pemaquid' to the river explored by Waymouth.  John Smith spoke of the whole coast as having formerly been called 'Norumbega, Musconkus, Penaquida, Canada, and such other names as those that ranged the coast pleased.'" (pg. 17).
• "...one cannot but regret that circumstances prevented Gilbert and Popham from appearing before the courts of that mysterious and challenging figure, the 'Bashaba.'  About him much has been written, but little is really known.  Purchas in his 'Pilgrims' makes him the chief lord of an extensive country called 'Mawooshen,' stretching from the Tarratines at the east to the River Piscataqua at the west.  Purchas' whole description is too fanciful, however, to carry any weight.  Rosier evidently believed that the savages with whom they treated used the word 'Bashaba' as a general term for ruler.  'They gave us some (tobacco),' he writes, 'to carry to our Bashaba.'  Gorges says: 'That part of the country we first seated in seemed to be monarchical,' its ruler having the title of 'Bashaba.'  'The Bashaba,' he writes, 'and his people seemed to be of some eminence above the rest. ... His own chief abode was not far from Pemaquid.'"  (pg. 27).
• "John Smith enumerated, under their several Indian names, the countries from the Penobscot to Massachusetts, and adds; 'Though most be lords of themselves, yet they hold the Bashabes of Penobscot the chiefe and greatest amongst them." (pg. 27).
• "Alliances were common, but there was no federation in the sense of one tribe's paying tribute to the people and rulers of another.  The notion that the Bashaba as a sort of emperor was current with the early English, but not with the French who knew the savages more intimately.  The 'Bashaba' was doubtless merely a prominent savage chief." (pg. 27).
• "The Indians fought stoutly to retain the lands east of Pemaquid and north of certain points on the Kennebec.  At the conference with Gov. Shute in 1717 they said they were unwilling that the English should settle east of Pemaquid or north of certain mills on the Kennebec.  In 1726, at a conference with Gov. Dummer at Falmouth, which ended the period of strife just described and which resulted in the ratification of a treaty, the savages took a similar stand, demanding the removal of the forts at St. George's and at Richmond." (pg. 195).

• "There is no evidence that this was a place much resorted to by Indians, though the Wawenocks inhabited the country from Sagadahock to St. George's River.  It is obvious, however, that they were here occasionally.  It is said that during the French war several lived along Crawford's River, and between Seven-tree Pond and Round Pond, near the latter.  Stone hatchets, chisels, and other Indian implements, have been found near the Upper Bridge, in the vicinity of which was a good place for fishing at the waterfall.  About half-way between Nye's Corner and Sunnybec Pond, very near the spot where the school-house now stands, two Indian skeletons were ploughed up in repairing the road some twenty-five years since.  Hatches, arrow-heads, &c. were found by the early settlers near the mouth of Crawford's River.  A brass kettle, as large as a pail, was also found there." (pg. 23).
• "Not any Indians were living here when the first settlers came.  They often visited the town afterwards, 'hunted along almost every year,' and were on friendly terms with the inhabitants." (pg. 25).
