A compelling exploration of The Walam Olum, this book examines the purported translation of pictographs recounting the epic migration and history of the Delaware people. If authentic, it would stand as one of the rare written records from Native North America, detailing an eastward journey across the 'stone-hard water' and key historical events.
However, questions surrounding the document's origins and credibility have sparked debate among scholars. Daniel Garrison Brinton presents the text alongside critical commentary, offering insight into its linguistic, cultural, and historical significance.
Whether viewed as a genuine indigenous record or a contested artifact, The Walam Olum remains a fascinating window into the narratives that shape our understanding of Native American heritage.
