Yamasee Indians

The Yamassee Indians have been described as the most fierce warriors of all the native tribes (the colonist ),
encountered. And according to wiki submitter s they are extinct and without language!
But if we take a closer look at congressional records and confessions, of sub committees, they could have never disappeared!
This leaves me to question wiki's policy of accurate information, and those whom would continue this false hood.

Researching and being led by the Current Yamassee Nation ( http://www.yamasseenation.org) to Congressional online documents, show it would be impossible for this group of Indigenous people to have ever been, annihilated  especially if they were described as " Negro" or of "African" descent or even African, European books even make the claim they were here before the land bridge. Refer to Congressional link page 824 : Congressional Online Link.

The documents being shown , verifies how these people survived, and had their own towns, even after the purported history of all of them going to the south (Florida), and falling out of existence!
The general term used in congressional records of "Negro" and " African" seems to summarizes the majority of the US population at this moment and describes what Seminole or Miccosuki use to look like.

 Further research says these people were here before the Birth of Christ. And the validity of that statement can be seen in the Catawban  language /yį musí:/, literally "people-ancient" which would make plenty of since. Refer to Wiki link : (Catawban Reference) Another source is in Google Books New African!Page 39

The Yamasee, yamassee, yamasi, Jemessi or how ever you decide you want to spell it, have been around seems far to long, and  have integrated major members of other tribes in their Nation  and history shows to   just  have "Disappear".
People like that does not just get defeated by a few hundred people.

Now I can only assume, the purpose for the historians of ole, reason for writing the Yamasee Indians out of existence was for fear, that the African slaves they "Did" bring over and all their descendants would be able to link themselves back to the Yamassee and claim all of the land they once owned, it would be the biggest Land Claim, and historical jolt, ever known.
Further verification through history, shows the Yamassee were a lot of times at the lead of rebellions against , many nations, with the Cherokee, Apallachee, Yuchi, Tuscarora , Choctaw, Creek and more by their side!
As a Matter of fact, their lineage connects them to the Sioux, and pretty much all the tribes that exist today!

You can't have hundreds of Towns and villages, lead countless battles, and help your enemies fight with a "Small" band of Natives...It is impossible, because of the lost of life involved!
Whatever the historians tried to accomplish by using the pen to give the illusion of total extinction, also worked against them, because it is through all of their documents that prove they were never extinct!

The Cuban Connection!
What I do see is countless little stories, from hundreds of Yamassee incursions, that have been taken from different times in history, and Blended together to give the " Illusion " of such a brash statement being giving even today by modern so called historian buffs?
Documents show these set of Native Americans (Yamassee ) could have even created a large portion of the Cuban Population. ( Refer to: 




Cubans And the Yamassee)
Quote from " The Struggle for the Georgia Coast" " Though research is still ongoing,  living descendants of these African-Guale and Guale-Yamassee may yet be discovered in Modern Cuba".

How does that play out for whom the Guale (Gua-la? / Guallah?) were? Well history says they were and (Are) the Yamassee After a certain time period.

"Guale was an historic Native American chiefdom along the coast of present-day Georgia and the Sea IslandsSpanish Florida established its Roman Catholic missionary system in the chiefdom in the late 16th century. During the late 17th century and early 18th century, Guale society was shattered from extensive epidemics of new infectious diseases and warfare from other tribes. Some of the surviving remnants migrated to the mission areas of Spanish Florida while others remained near the Georgia coast. Joining with other survivors, they became known as the Yamasee, an ethnically mixed group that emerged in a process of ethnogenesis.'




Let the correct Spelling Of Yamassee Step Up!
Seems to be very clear and precise to me! But do your own research and see for your self, better yet I Challenge  "History Buffs" to get off their Lazy Computer chair butts and just search Yamassee in any Spelling  of their choosing in Google books, and see all of the information available hidden in these very resourceful documents!
I mentioned the spelling, because people honestly think the spelling matters, when to be exact the Y did not exist when these people were first encountered so it could have only been spelled with a "J" or something similar.

Upper & Lower Yamassee or Upper & Lower Creek?
The 5 Civilized tribes include the Yamassee...




On this subject I Will let the documents Speak for themselves!
