## About this book

Native Writings in Massachusett Volume 1 is a comprehensive foreign language study focusing on the extinct Eastern Algonquian language. This scholarly work presents an edition of all known manuscript writings produced by native speakers of the Massachusetts language. The text covers the linguistic, historical, and ethnographic contexts of the region, providing deep insight into the communication of the Colonial period.

This volume examines the speech of the Massachusetts, Wampanoags, and Nausets people. The geographic scope includes the Boston area, Cape Cod, and the islands of Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket. Native Writings in Massachusett Volume 1 includes original documents to support its analysis of these indigenous writings. This academic resource serves as a critical record of a lost language and the cultures that inhabited southeastern Massachusetts.
