This study deals with the origins, history, and contacts of the Oneota peoples of the prairies and Upper Great Lakes areas, peoples associated with a precontact North American Indian culture of Upper Mississippian affiliation. More specifically, it is an attempt to reconstruct the development of the Oneota peoples, as it is revealed by their physical anthropology, archaeology, ethnohistory, and lingustics.
“Glenn’s holistic treatment of Oneota represents an ambitious attempt to synthesize all available linguistic, archaeological, ethnohistorical, and physical anthropological data in order ‘to reconstruct the development of Oneota peoples’. . . . Glenn’s study represents a landmark attempt to examine the biological parameters of Oneota. . . . Glenn is to be complimented for her holistic attempt to combine archaeological, linguistic, and ethnohistoric data with biological parameters.”
