Seeking Circles of Dialogue and Accountability
Seeking Circles of Dialogue and Accountability Christine DeLucia (bio) HISTORIANS' work is an "ethical enterprise" involving foundational considerations of justice and accountability to past and present communities. Sharon Block frames these stakes for "doing history" in this incisive reflection on the methods and goals of early Americanists.1 In revisiting Rachel Davis and her social worlds, Block models one approach to an ethical practice of en…
Spectacles of Settler Colonial Memory
In 1923, rural New England mill town Dover, New Hampshire, staged a Tercentenary pageant of extraordinary proportions to celebrate its "first" settlement. This public spectacle memorialized a specific, and deeply exclusionary, narrative of English settler colonialism, shaped by social anxieties of the post-First World War United States. Recent archaeological research has found possible remnants from this spectacle on a seventeenth-century site. I…

Recovering Material Archives in the Native Northeast
Material culture offers an important and challenging critical tool kit for Native American and early American studies. This essay focuses on a series of case studies from the Northeast, particularly Native and colonial contexts in central and eastern Massachusetts, to demonstrate how tangible objects can provide powerful complements to archival/documentary records and even help redress seeming silences or absences that arise from textually focuse…

Continuing the Intervention
David Silverman offers a critical appraisal of two prizewinning works in Native American and Indigenous studies (NAIS), Our Beloved Kin: A New History of King Philip's War, by Lisa Brooks, and Memory Lands: King Philip's War and the Place of Violence in the Northeast, by Christine M. DeLucia. Silverman's review treats the methodology associated with NAIS with some skepticism, offering the opportunity for a lively discussion about the merits and p…
Materialities of Memory
Across the Northeast, Indigenous people and colonial New Englanders have fashioned myriad expressions of memory that attest to certain versions of conflicted pasts. On one hand, colonial remembrances of violence and upheaval are abundant and amply legible in local historical societies, historical markers, family heirlooms, and many other forms of memorialization. Yet this seeming abundance of memory arises from equally powerful kinds of forgettin…
Terrapolitics in the Dawnland
This essay re-examines Wampanoag and Anglo-American relationships by focusing on a post-King Philip's War land negotiation document. Using the concept of “terrapolitics,” it argues for the significance of expansive place-based relationships for Wampanoag communities and the challenges posed by English settler colonialism in the seventeenth century

The author delves into oral traditions of Cadd…

Power and Persistence along a Changing River
This chapter follows the evolution of the Great River valley in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, an era when industrialization and modernization created anxieties among many Euro-American populations, as well as opportunities for enduring Native communities. It accounts for the emergence of Turners Falls as a planned industrial community that harnessed the current of the river for hydropower, and provided an impetus for conservative plac…
Contested Passages
This chapter examines the area around Boston Harbor and how Algonquians as well as Massachusetts Bay colonists engaged in contestations beginning in the seventeenth century. It begins by unpacking how Wampanoag and Massachusett peoples understood such geographies, including the meanings of rivers, maritime spaces, and islands, drawing upon deep-time oral traditions and archaeology. It then follows the arrival of John Winthrop and Puritans into Ma…
Fugitive Collections in New England Indian Country
Native communities across North America experienced disruptions when European and colonial collectors began seeking out their material objects for deposit into museums, scholarly repositories, and comparable institutions. Yet Native people and sovereign nations repeatedly exercised agency in shaping objects' transits and meanings in early America. This article revisits a "lost" museum once situated at Yale College in New Haven, Connecticut. Here …

The Memory Frontier
The runners set out before dawn. Traveling east from the rushing falls at South Natick, Massachusetts, they swept over cold earth and under mid-autumn stars, silhouetted by headlights cutting the dark. By the time they reached the river, the sun had risen just high enough to illuminate an astonishing sight. Three mishoonash, wooden dugouts fashioned by Wampanoag Indians, floated on the Charles River upstream from the Boston skyline and alongside …
