| Zusammenfassung: | 'The Powhatan Landscape' breaks new ground by tracing Native placemaking in the Chesapeake from the Algonquian arrival to the Powhatan's clashes with the English. Martin Gallivan details how Virginia Algonquians constructed riverine communities alongside fishing grounds and collective burials and later within horticultural towns. Ceremonial spaces, including earthwork enclosures within the center place of Werowocomoco, gathered people for centuries prior to 1607. Even after the violent ruptures of the colonial era, Native people returned to riverine towns for pilgrimages commemorating the enduring power of place. Dwelling in Tsenacomacoh -- Mapping the terrain -- Placemaking in the Algonquian Chesapeake -- Arrival in the wide land -- The coarse-pounded corn people -- The place of the antler wearers -- Persistent places in colonial Tsenacomacoh |
