13:41 - I'm glad to finally find a source that tells me how they referred to themselves. I'd long suspected that "Erie" wasn't the whole story... now I can say at least a bit more than that, thank you. (And that's not to mention lots of other stuff presented here...)

My best friend is Seneca from western New York. His dad was a truck driver and they moved to Ohio when I was twelve. They all had a very dark sense of humor and I immediately bonded with them. I’m half Hispanic but they said I could pass for a “Indian” and they kind of adopted me. I spent as much time with them as I could, going back to the Rez with them every summer. Their elders told me that the mounds were already here when their ancestors arrived and were built by giants. In ancient times their ancestors warred with remnants of these giants and pushed them further west. This was long before I had heard of giant bones being found in the mounds of Ohio, West Virginia and Indiana. I took it with a grain of salt back then, early eighties, but now I believe what they told me. Why do we not listen to the actual natives when they tell us their history. What do these so-called academics really know?

Go University of Akron!

Great summary, Definitely a book I’m gonna look more into, thanks!

Why dont they bring up how large the adena and hopewell cultures were. Some skeletons found were 7ft tall up to 9ft tall. some articles even say some were taller! Why arent any of us taught that in school or anywhere? Do the research and you will find the proof of this.

Yes

As to the question of the population of Native Americans living in Ohio, the 2020 Census gives this information: "Native Americans make up just 2% of Ohio's population - about 236,000 people, according to the US Census Bureau. Nov 23, 2023" I was hoping to be able to discern an answer fairly quickly and with a search on Google, and that's what I found. It was heartening to know that our Census data yielded its results without requiring a FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) application. It's also nice to realize that my old research skills are still useful. It's important to note that the Census data are from self-reporting individuals. Meaning that people are not necessarily members of Tribes, nor are they possessors of a CDIB, or Certified Degree of Indian Blood cards. Those CDIB cards are issued by the U.S. government indicating that the Bureau of Indian Affairs recognizes those individuals as Tribal members. I know a little more about these matters than most since I'm Native American Indian and a member of the Native American Journalists Association. I hope that I helped answer that question. I enjoyed the presentation and was glad that a library participated in allowing readers to interact with the authors. That is unique to my knowledge and is an interesting use of a library. I think it's brilliant, actually. Well done to everyone involved. 🪶👍

Did that Lenape Reservation at Wabash last beyond when the Lenape were removed from the state? I know that was done experimentally, around 1809, or something & it went so poorly, they never did it again until the Indian Removals, excepting the forced eviction of most of the Shawnee over the Shawnee War.

I believe the Lenape moved a bit earlier than that, as they were already between the Potomac & Monongahela Rivers when whites first began moving into Virginia & their territory ran up to the Mahoning River & southwest, into Ohio, until that issue in the 1760s forced them to give up all their eastern land.

Fantastic presentation. My family owns property in parkman along the Grand river that case western college excavated in the 20s saying that there was a buried ground there. I have always been interested in what group was there. My great great grandfather told stories of the last of them being forced out when he was young except for one lonely man in a 1 room cabin

Wow! Amazing amount of information. How is it we waited so long to see this or was it there all along? When I see pictures drawn or painted of the 1800s all or most Indians have already lost their way! Look at their cloths (uniforms) and relationships. Their clothing was made of new world materials and often styled after or included aspects of New World fashion. Mixed clothing with mixed minds. Welcome to the Industrial revolution. I contend that this revolution (brain fart) caused a sickness of greed that brought destruction and death to all sides of humanity and even more to wildlife. It (1800s) is truly a time of tears where people all (except atheist's, maybe) espoused some form of God and ALL took part in destruction and rape of what was provided! Guilt is in all families. Can we learn from it. Maybe!

I stopped at 13,000 years...

Shoutout to all the Native American spirits

We know quite a bit about the the post 17th century ingenious peoples of the area. Thanks to the Beaver Wars we can't really know who lived in the area prior, except through archaeology.

People have been trying to teach me this for more than half a century. Thanks to having heard it all before, your clear and well-diagrammed presentation has put me over the top. It helps than my life now includes several drives per year through these regions, between Cincinnati and Vermont, sometimes by way of Ottawa. Your arrows and circles have ignited a connected sentiment within me.

3 of my ancestors fought at the battle of Upper Sandusky (1782). All 3 were Washington co. Pa. militia. All 3 survived the battle. I have been to the grave of one. John Jamison, Leet's company. Pa. archives has a copy of his signature where he was drawing a wartime pension. He died in 1811.

where did the giant bones go?

The Adena dna comes from Europe. They came here by turtle boats just under <2000bc. We call the the Jaredites. They were tall and mighty men who were black. About 600bc another group from Jerusalem. They had earring factions. Both groups fought time & time again. The jaredites fought to the last man. Wow. Stayed alive just long enough to meet the next group called the nephites. That’s why you have the time lines. Just read the Book of Mormon and you’ll get your history. Adena = jaredites & hopewell = nephites.

Large amounts of Saponi moved in to southern Ohio in the mid 1850s so much so that there is the Saponi nation of Ohio

Cats have nine lives. Why not the Cat Nation. Like.. the Cat came back...

Chief Blue Jacket was my family. I'm Shawnee. I'm #421 on the Cherokee scroll's. Roderick Ray Rutledge.

uncle built dirtbike tracks for me and my brother in leroy, ohio. found some cool stuff n still finding it hehe

Cant even tell story of ohio in ohio 💀💀💀💀

"Scientists believe." Really. Repeating tired tropes is not justice. Just ask The People. Let them speak.

Sad we Natives can not tell the Truth because we are always silenced. We came here on Ships as bible describes from the East. There was no land bridge. All across these lands We Natives have in ancient Hebrew writings and teachings of everything we have done. Please gentiles stop misleading people with lies about True Hebrews and Israelites.

Lmao came from Asian 🤦🏽‍♂️

This is good for listening 🎧.... I was born in Mansfield... Haven't been there for years....I don't do good in snow anymore....🥶🤧🤒

Thanks for the program 👍

This is a really good presentation!

Kweh randyazatsi wendat’ndi …..my father was Wyandot. I live not too far from blue licks Ky, where the Wyandot beat Daniel Boone.

This is amazing. Thank you. I had no idea this was all going on in my neighborhood centuries ago.

Thank You

Thanks so much for your diligent research . We love our Native American history in Ohio . I used to find Arrowheads behind our home in Stow - near the Portage County line .

I just finished this book. I thought it was a fair and hopeful view of how this crisis is affecting our state. Thank you 👍🏻

I have a copy of this amazing fantastic book. It has truly opened my eyes in regards to my early Ohio family genealogy and history. I saw several family surnames mentioned throughout this book being associated with many of settlements to include Longtown, Lett, Rumley, etc. My 7th grandmother born in 1790 was Dorothy Sellers the mixed race daughter of Adam Sellers from Rockingham Co, Virginia. She is the sister of Sophia Sellers who married James Clemens who started the Longtown Settlement. Her son was Daniel Green who is my 6th great grandfather who married a Ross.

Sounds like a great book !!

I can't wait to read this!

Yum!
