{"product_id":"yamasee-denise-bossy-9781469697345","title":"Yamasee: Indigenous Mobility, Placemaking, and Power in the Early South","description":"The Yamasees were one of the most powerful forces in the early South, yet they remain one of the least understood Indigenous nations of the region. In the archaeological record, Yamasee homelands migrate and disappear; in colonial archives, their movements seem fractured and disconnected. Yet, as Denise Bossy reveals in \u003ci\u003eYamasee (Yvmvse)\u003c\/i\u003e, the first comprehensive study of the Yamasee Nation, much of this was by their own design.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrawing from their deep ancestral practices, the Yamasees crafted a dynamic culture of mobility and place-making driven by an unwavering commitment to sovereignty and self-determination. With each migration, the Yamasees transformed new spaces into homelands, becoming the foremost experts of the early Southeast's complex and ever-changing geography, political and cultural landscapes, and sacred spaces.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Yamasees continued to harness this powerful strategy to navigate and at times even exploit the escalating violence unleashed by European colonialism. This legacy of mobility enabled their survival long after the alleged death of the last Yamasee.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Denise Bossy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1469697343\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781469697345\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Omohundro Institute and Unc Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/23\/2027\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 576\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Denise Bossy","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48997559632127,"sku":"9781469697345","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/yamasee-denise-bossy-9781469697345","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
