"The homes of the Indians were copied by the English, being ready adaptations of natural
and plentiful resources. Wigwams in the South were of plaited rush or grass mats; of
deerskins pinned on a frame; of tree boughs rudely piled into a cover, and in the far South,
of layers of palmetto leaves. In the mild climate of the Middle and Southern states a
'half-faced camp,' of the Indian form, with one open side, which served for windows and
door, and where the fire was built, made a good temporary home. In such for a time, in his
youth, lived Abraham Lincoln. Bark wigwams were the most easily made of all; they could
be quickly pinned together on a light frame. In 1626 there were thirty home-buildings of
Europeans on the island of Manhattan, now New York, and all but one of them were of
bark."—Alice Morse Earle, Home Life in Colonial Days, 1898

either of these metals."—The Journey of Nunez Cabeza de Vaca, 1527–1537 Exploration in

"Fourthly, Because the way of conquering them is much more easie then of ciuilizing them
by faire meanes, for they are a rude, barbarous, and naked people, scattered in small
companies, which are helps to Victorie, but hinderances to Ciuilitie: Besides that, a conquest
may be of many, and at once; but ciuility is in particular, and slow, the effect of long time,
and great industry. Moreouer, victorie of them may bee gained many waies; by force, by
surprize, by famine in burning their Corne, by destroying and burning their Boats, Canoes,
and Houses."—Edward Waterhouse, from "A Declaration of the State of the Colony and ... A
Relation of the Barbarous Massacre," a report to the Virginia Company, 1622

present Parliament assembled and by the Authority of the same:
That no Person or Persons ... shall directly or indirectly export ... out of or from the said
