Synopsis
Excerpt from Lancaster County Indians: Annals of the Susquehannocks and Other Indian Tribes of the Susquehanna Territory From About the Year 1500 to 1763, the Date of Their Extinction, an Exhaustive and Interesting Series of Historical Papers Descriptive of Lancaster County's Indians Prior To This migration according to the authorities and the Indians' own story extended over many centuries, so that they reached and discovered the Susquehanna likely before the discovery of America. The Susquehannocks, Nanticokes, the Shackamaxons, the Shawnese, and several other tribes, Gordon says, came from this Wolf tribe of the Lenape. (p. 56.) The committee of archaeology of the Dauphin Historical Society in a pamphlet on the Lower Susquehanna called "Contributions to Indian History of the Lower Susquehanna Valley," in 1898 made a report to that Society full of interesting matter on the origin of our Indians, and in it, page 39, they say, "Prior to 1600 but how long before is not known, the Susquehannocks were seated upon that river, from which they have derived their name." The pamphlet also sets forth that before the Susquehannocks settled on the river, "they came into collision with the Mohawks the most easterly of the Iroquois, and in a war lasting ten years nearly exterminated them." The same pamphlet says that John Smith found them in war with the Mohawks when he met them in 1608 (p. 39.) The Jesuit Fathers, the minutes and records of whose discoveries in America are now collected and compiled into a work of seventy-two volumes, called the "Jesuit Relations," also give accounts of the wars these, now Susquehannocks, went through before they settled on Susquehanna River in the dim past. The Dauphin County pamphlet also speaks of this (page 39.) but the exact quotations themselves from the Jesuits will be given later. These earliest Susquehannock Indians were cannibals to some extent. Heckewelder tells us, page 55, "At one time they did eat human flesh. And at one time they ate up a whole body of the French King's soldiers; and they said human flesh tastes like bear's meat." They say the human hand is bitter meat and not good to eat, like the other parts of a person. The Susquehannocks remained more or less cannibal up to 1666, when Geo. Alsop writes that at that date he knew of them eating their enemies whom they took in war. Thus much for the earliest accounts of our Susquehanna country Indians. This description is more or less vague, from the misty knowledge of them at this date; but all following discussions will be supported by definite citation. 1600 - Ancient Indian Rock Pictures. Very early in the history of the Indians on the Susquehanna, perhaps before the year 1600, or may be before the discovery of America, the Indians living on that river, cut a lot of strange and grotesque pictures upon the rocks in the river, near Safe Harbor and also near Washington borough. They seem to have been cut, during the same age or epoch; and all of them seem to represent the same system of ideas. Some of them are much deeper than others, but that seems to be because they have been less exposed to wasting forces. The lines of some are nearly a quarter of an inch deep, while others are scarcely visible. The main rocks in the river so decorated are "Big Indian Rock" and "Little Indian Rock," both a few hundred yards below Safe Harbor. There are many rocks so carved however.

Further proving this early intercourse and trade between the French and Susquehannocks, Mr. Guss says on the same page, The iron hatchets which Smith (in 1608) found in the posses sion of the Tockwocks (that is Nan ticokes) they informed him they had received from the Susquehannocks; and they in turn, Smith says, inform ed him that 'from the French they had their hatchets.' Thus some years ibefore 1608 the Susquehannocks were in commercial intercourse with the French. And again this same author at the same page says, The Sus quehannocks were a ruling tribe and forced trade privileges from other In ldian tribes. Powhatan gave this fierce and mighty nation the name of the Pocoughtronack Indians. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
