Imagining a Birkarl conquest
At the turn of the seventeenth century Swedish Crown officials popularized a violent story describing how men called Birkarlar had long ago conquered the Sámi people and their homeland, Sápmi. Since then, the story has enjoyed widespread popularity in both Sweden and Finland, and it has been retold for a variety of political, academic, and artistic purposes by diverse Swedish, Finnish, and Sámi narrators. While the Birkarl conquest is today consi…
Talking about violence
From the seventeenth century well into the twentieth violent stories depicting ancient conflicts between the Sámi and their neighbours circulated widely in and around Sápmi. Narratives about battles and raids were produced and consumed for different purposes by diverse narrators and audiences employing various media. This article investigates how these violent narratives became embedded in Swedish and Finnish colonialism in Sápmi between 1600 and…
‘Tell them nott to bring any rum here’
Narratives about the colonial liquor trade among the Native peoples of Eastern North America have long emphasized the weakness of Indigenous authorities. Focusing on the efforts of Shawnee leaders to regulate this commerce from 1700 to the 1860s, this article complicates such views. Alcohol control pushed Shawnees to construct, test, and debate diverse forms of authority. The trade persisted, however, because colonial empires refused to recognize…

Masters of the Middle Waters
In Masters of the Middle Waters, Jacob Lee traces the entangled histories of Indigenous peoples and colonial intruders along the Middle Mississippi River from the fall of Cahokia to the consolidation of US hegemony. The highly ambitious book brings together several key strands of recent historiography. Most importantly, it continues the ongoing reconceptualization of empires as fragile “familial, economic, and diplomatic networks” (3) and pushes …
Gathering Together
Weaving Indian and Euro-American histories together in this groundbreaking book, Sami Lakomäki places the Shawnee people, and Native peoples in general, firmly at the center of American history. The book covers nearly three centuries, from the years leading up to the Shawnees’ first European contacts to the post–Civil War era, and demonstrates vividly how the interactions between Natives and newcomers transformed the political realities and ideas…

We Then Went to England
Between 1795 and 1808 several Shawnee orators recounted to British and US officials a story about a Shawnee voyage to England. These narratives push scholars to reconsider the Atlantic world paradigm from an Indigenous perspective. They reveal Native constructions of space and historicity that cannot be easily integrated into the standard frameworks of Atlantic history. Instead of an ocean that united four continents into a single "Atlantic world…

“Dispersed Like Turkeys”
From the 1780s on, increasing numbers of Shawnees and their Native neighbors escaped the US expansion from the Ohio Valley to the trans-Mississippi West. This chapter traces the histories of these communities. It argues that alliances with the Spanish empire and the western Cherokees were crucial for the Shawnee emigrants’ efforts to secure land, trade, and safety in the West. The Louisiana Purchase (1803) unsettled the western Shawnee geopolitic…
“The Greatest Travellers In America”
This chapter explores the emergence of the people called Shawnees after the mid-fifteenth century and their subsequent dispersal when the shockwaves of the European invasion – epidemics, slave-raiding, and transformations of trade routes – turned eastern North America into an unstable “shatter zone” in the seventeenth century. The chapter reveals that mobility, flexible community fissions, and multi-ethnic alliances became Shawnee survival strate…
Borderlands as spaces
Cultural anthropologists and historians have successfully adopted a borderlands perspective to investigate interaction, power, and identity between emerging or expanding state societies. This article develops an archaeological approach to such interstitial landscapes. It conceptualizes borderlands as spaces where people engage the material world under very specific geopolitical circumstances and create very specific materialities and subjectiviti…
The Dimensions of Sustainability and the Neo-entrepreneurial Adaptation Strategies in Reindeer Herding in Finland
Current public discourse in Finland concerning reindeer herding has focused on the overgrazing problem and conflicts between herding and competitive forms of land use. Both herders and government administrators agree on the problems of herding, but conceptualize their causes differently. Administrators insist that sustainability in herding is reachable through bioeconomic management that unites biological metrics of sustainable systems with an ec…
