Foreword / by Jerald T. Milanich -- Preface -- Introduction -- Indian life in the late Woodland Period (ca. A.D. 900-ca. 1500) -- The Protohistoric Period (ca. 1500-1607) -- Powhatan Indian culture when the English arrived -- The Indian presence at Jamestown Fort -- The first century of English occupation -- The middle centuries -- A century of public struggle -- Places to Visit. "Addressed to specialists and nonspecialists alike, Before and After Jamestown introduces the Powhatans - the Native Americans of Virginia's coastal plains, who played an integral part in the life of the Williamsburg and Jamestown settlements - in scenes that span 1,100 years, from just before their earliest contact with non-Indians to the present day."--Jacket. |
