Populating the territory were Europeans, Indians, and Africans who interacted frequently with one another despite disparate cultural traits. Cultural brokers not only brought members of each society together but did so in a manner that allowed the groups to achieve a level of understanding that would have been otherwise impossible. The project concentrates on four categories of cultural brokers: Indian traders, military personnel, missionaries, and the Indians themselves. Members of each of these groups played critical roles as intermediaries between the natives and the newcomers. In addition to directing the material exchange between the two groups, they conveyed ideological values and diplomatic information as well. Cultural brokers served as interpreters, escorts, and emissaries. They relayed messages, invitations, and military intelligence. They explained one side to the other, interpreting language, protocol, and meanings. They consequently had an invaluable effect on maintaining positive relations between the Indians and the colonists during Georgia’s first thirty years. All of these mediators lived and worked on the frontier, but that does not mean that they were on the fringe of society. In fact, Georgia’s cultural brokers enjoyed a favored position, respected for their abilities to move between Indian and colonial worlds. They were equally comfortable in each society and were fully accepted by both. Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction prohibited without permission.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The author would like to offer her sincere gratitude to the many people who offered support and wisdom during the course of this project. The Institute for Southern Studies provided a generous research grant, as did the College of William and Mary. Sam Fore and the staff at the Caroliniana Library were helpful and engaging, and the interlibrary loan staff at William and Mary consistently offered a friendly and efficient service. Thanks also goes to the dissertation committee members, Charles Hudson, James Whittenburg, and Andrew Fisher, all of whom made the final review and defense of the project more rewarding. Special thanks is offered to James Axtell, whose patience, prodding, humor, and knowledge consistently offered inspiration. Clay Drees and the “old school” colleagues at Virginia Wesleyan College provided a collegial atmosphere in which to teach while working on the dissertation. Susan Kern and Laura Odendahl offered friendship, encouragement, and empathy as only fellow graduate school classmates could. Family fortunately offers unconditional love and support, and for that, the author happily acknowledges a debt of gratitude to Karen, Dad, Mom, Tip, and most especially Bruce. ii Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

(2013) Creek Indian Globetrotter: Tomochichi’s Trans-Atlantic Quest for Traditional Power in the Colonial Southeast. Ethnohistory, 60(4), 605-635. DOI: DOI 10.1215/00141801- 23133849 Made available courtesy of The American Society for Ethnohistory and Duke University Press: http://ethnohistory.dukejournals.org/content/60/4/605.abstract ***Reprinted with permission. No further reproduction is authorized without written permission from Duke University Press. This version of the document is not the version of record. Figures and/or pictures may be missing from this format of the document. *** Abstract: This essay reinterprets the life of a famous Muscogee Creek leader and examines the relationship between chiefly power and foreign travel in American Indian studies and Atlantic world studies. In spring 1734, the Creek headman Tomochichi and British imperialist James Edward Oglethorpe traveled to London to ratify a treaty that established the British colony of Georgia in the neighborhood of the Creek Confederacy. During his five-month sojourn, Tomochichi forged alliances with the Georgia trustees and the British royal family that resulted in a unique trans- Atlantic network of patronage. Upon return home, he leveraged his ocean-going imperial connections to craft an authoritative chieftainship that dated to the seventeenth-century Mississippian era. Keywords: history | ethnohistory | muscogee creek | chieftains | native american studies | atlantic world studies | Tomochichi Article: At the turn of the twentieth century, anthropologist John Reed Swanton recorded the origins of the Hitchiti Creeks, who spoke the Hitchiti dialect of the Muscogean (mus-KO-gee-an) language family.

    Social Studies, Grade 2 Week 6 (September 21-25, 2020) Friday Step 1: Summarize the learning your student has engaged in during the last three weeks of Social Studies. Use the following points to help your student understand that the founding of Georgia was a process and necessitated cooperation, friendship, and leadership amongst Oglethorpe, Tomochichi, and Musgrove. This collaborative work also led to the establishment of Savannah as Georgia’s first city because of its prime location and economic prospects. Use some of the following points to guide your student in synthesizing the information that s/he has learned: • James Oglethorpe, an English settler, was interested in setting up a new colony to provide a way for poor men to avoid debt and prison and be able to live a good life. • Ultimately, military and economic issues were the main factors for creating a new colony, and King George II granted a charter for starting an English colony. • James Oglethorpe and other English settlers, who had skills necessary for the colony’s success, sailed to America. • James Oglethorpe wanted to settle on land that belonged to the Creek Indians. • Tomochichi, Chief of the Yamacraw Indians, became friends with Oglethorpe and allowed colonists to settle on Yamacraw Bluff near Savannah River to trade with the English. • Tomochichi traveled to England and convinced his people the English had good intentions of colonizing the land in Georgia. • Oglethorpe and Tomochichi worked together to develop the major city of Savannah, located on Yamacraw Bluff. • Mary Musgrove, daughter of an English trader and Creek Indian mother, served as a translator for Tomochichi and Oglethorpe and helped the peaceful relationship between Indians and colonists by operating a trading post in Savannah.

    THE WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA HISTORICAL MAGAZINE Volume 43 March 1960 Number 1 A REVOLUTIONARY JOURNAL AND ORDERLY BOOK OF GENERAL LACHLAN McINTOSH'S EXPEDITION, 1778 Edited by Edward G. Williams Introduction is continuing romantic sentiment in bringing to public * view old manuscript accounts of the personal experiences of Therethose who participated in the early struggles of this history- rich tri-state area. The Western Pennsylvania Historical Magazine recently published an orderly book, a journal, and two maps that all fitted together to identify most of the route and camping sites of Colonel Bouquet's march against the Ohio Indian towns in 1764. 1 Now we find, as always in historical study, that events and facts are interwoven and correlated in surprising ways. We are reminded that the Great Trail, that "Indian thorofare" of the forest, which Bouquet opened up as a road for his small army, was retraced, 2 worn deeper, and further hallowed by the fatigue and Mr. Williams, a graduate of Bucknell University and a member of this Society, is well-known to the readers of The Western Pennsylvania His- torical Magazine through the editing of the Bouquet Orderly Book of the 1 764 expedition into Ohio.
