While we know our northern friends may not feel it, in the South, Spring is
here. So we thought we'd share a few of our gardening sites appropriate
for this time of the year. Along with gardening, there's grilling, and getting
ready to diet so that you can fit back into that bathing suit this summer!
Christanna
Indians. A group of Siouan tribes of Virginia, which were
collected for a time in the early years of the 18th century at Ft
Christanna, on Meherrin river, near the present Gholsonville, Va. Gov.
Spotswood settled these tribes there about 1700 in the belief that they
would form a barrier on that side against hostile Indians.
The tribes were the Meipontsky, Occaneechi, Saponi,
Stegaraki, and Tutelo.
See Mooney, Siouan Tribes of the East,
Bull. B. A. E., 1894.
