The Muscogee (or
Muskogee
), also known as the Creek or Creeks, are an American Indian
people originally from the southeastern
United States
. Muskoke is their name in traditional
spelling. Modern Muscogees live primarily in
Oklahoma
,
Alabama
,
Georgia
, and
Florida
.
Their language, Muskoke, is a member of the Muscogee branch of the Muscogean language
family. They were a part of the Mississippian culture which was located throughout
the
Mississippi River
valley.
The early Spanish explorers, according to historian Walter Williams, encountered their antecedents.
In the 19th century, Muscogees were known as one of the "Five Civilized Tribes" because they
had integrated numerous cultural and technological practices of their European American colonial neighbors.
(This book) “ . . . originated in an attempt to prepare a report on the Indians of the Creek Confederacy
similar to that made . . .
for those along the lower course of the
Mississippi River
. In this study,
however, it is still possible to add information obtained from living Indians, about
9,000 of whom were enumerated in 1910.
But when material from all sources had been tentatively brought together the amount was found to
be so great that it was thought advisable to divide the work into two or three different sections
for separate publication. As our account of the distribution, interrelationship, and history of
these people is to be gathered rather from documentary sources than from field investigations
it is naturally the first to be ready for presentation.
Since it has been compiled primarily for ethnological purposes, no attempt has been made to
give a complete account of the later fortunes of the tribes under consideration, such important
chapters in their career as the Creek and Seminole wars and the westward emigration belonging
within the province of the historian strictly so considered.
The writer's main endeavor has been to trace their movements from earliest times until they
are caught up into the broad stream of later history in which concealment is practically impossible.”
