Indians Nearly DESTROY Colony | The Yamasee War 1715-1717

[@Rudehotel9927]

Phenomenal storytelling. I'm from upstate SC, travel to Beaufort every summer. The histroy of the battle on Bay Street where the boat was held to wait. Mostly carried women and children and the able bodied husbands stood on Bay Street and fought off the Yamasee until the tides changed for the boats to leave. It was said the Yamasee could pull apart a palm tree and use it as a weapon. They were a much better shot with the guns also. Great great storytelling here!! Would love to hear more!!

[@theronmartinANIWAYA]

I am from SC. Ancestry goes back to the 1600s. Great stuff. So much going on. The Ani Yun Wiya also fought in this war. Years later there are also crazy stories of Colonial govenors kidnapping Tsalagi chiefs and holding them ransom. So much amazing history that most have no idea.

[@tombrazzel5046]

This is definitely one of my new favorite channels on KZbin. If you’re looking for recommendations I’d recommend Kiefts War up in New York or La Salles journey down the Mississippi.

[@datesanddeadguys]

It is great to hear that. Thank you. I have never spent any time on Kiefts War but it is right down my alley. I have spent a lot of the last few weeks reading about colonial New England and a lot of the Native American conflicts there prior to 1700. La Salles would be fun to. Those old explorers are so interesting. Getting to see things no westerner had ever seen before. Nothing like that now that I can think of.

[@jackspring7709]

Your series has been an eye opener: I live in the UK: my understanding of the "Cowboys and Indians" era had been 'white people stole their land and drove them into reservations'. Realising that the history is a lot more complicated and less black and white (by a long shot) has been a real opener. Incredible work - thank you.

[@firstnamelastname2197]

@@Threezi04it doesnt though. The precedent of native threats to whites continues to be a strong motivation to not allow them the opportunity to ever pose such threats again. Like with the roman conquest of gaul. Rome’s sacking by Brennus was centuries prior but loomed in roman minds and, while not the whole of the motive, did rationalise romans’ preemptive conquest. Its stupid to even refer to a specific example as this is a constant in history. Making your “tribe” as strong and rich as can be with neighbors pacified was a safeguard against suffering oppression oneself

the best way to think of history is like real life because it is real life. try to explain all of your complex life decisions in the past year in the most simple way possible and dont put any bias on it towards your choice in the decision.

God bless you sir for being an honest commentator. This is very rare in these troubled times. True history (if there is such a thing) has no heroes or villains, only protagonists. As you note throughout your presentation, we are dependent on the accounts of others for our story, others who of course have their own prejudices and biases. Thanks for giving a balanced account, especially at the end.

Western and northern Canada is still kinda like the Old West. I grew up in the Canadian provinces of British Columbia and Alberta and the territories of Yukon and Northwest. Many times during dry spells between jobs, I'd hunt and cure skins to make leather, and sell them to intermediaries I know. In Canadian dollars I made: $8/raccoon skin, $14/buckskin, $21/coyote/wolf skin, and $2 per each little animal skin (rabbit, beaver, muskrat, groundhog, mole, etc) ---------------------------- You are the best early-American, American-Indian history channel because you speak facts and show illustrations and you don't confuse us with legends and myths!

That is very high praise. Thank you. It means a lot. I am super interested in the fact people still know how to do things like cure skins for everyday life. I have always found the wilderness in Canada awesome, although I have never been there.

[@crusader.survivor]

@@datesanddeadguys My pleasure. ... The Canadian wilderness is most likely the last pristine almost untouched nature in the world. In some places, you can go a thousand kilometers in any direction and you will never see or meet another human. It is a place you can feel like Davey Crockett or Lewis and Clark, or any other great American explorer!

However, all I see and hear are childish and Holywood style stories and all the people are using the same lies and nobody is authentic anymore. Topics like this are not studied, because of complexity. There are no Indians living in harmony. There are no brave explorers. There are no patriots. The only thing there is a complex reality of existence. This is why stories like this are unforgettable and worth knowing.

This is a subject I am glad I found from your channel. My family arrived in 1629 in MASS in Salem colonists. The 1 good thing about being a British rule was everything is documented. 13th generation and no history of slavery in family and it would of been documented. People think that slavery was treated the same in all 13 colonies but it wasn't. Most northern colonies treated people as equal. Every colonie had 3 types of residents 1 was British military and they could own and usually had slaves in higher ranking officers. 2nd group was the loyalists and they administration British laws and business. Both of these groups were the minority of population. 3rd was the colonists and they came for a freer life than in Britain and opposed slavery. They had to abide by British law and also made there own rules. Owning was against their rules and you would be shunned for it if you did. The records are there to research and many critical conflicts were of people of all ethnicity showing that color was not an issue. Every time people talk on this issue they try and use southern colonies as representing all colonies

Interesting topic and very clear descriptions. I enjoyed this historical presentation. Except I know what schizophrenia is and I have a friend who deals with it... and it's a sizable misnomer to call two people delivering opposite messages during negotiations, "schizophrenic." I'll try to explain briefly why I'm writing... it's not too come after you, I promise. Schizophrenia has more to do with auditory and visual experiences that aren't shared by others. That's a dumbed down explanation, and I know you meant no harm when you quoted whoever said it... but the editorial choice to include the quote was made by you. I've learned a lot from my friend about the stigmatization of people living with mental health issues. Misusing the terminology obscures the real symptoms and creates distrust towards people who are coping with debilitating illusions and other symptoms. I've learned that if I want to say something is inconsistent or unpredictable or chaotic, I use those words instead of misusing a term that I didn't fully understand.

Saying that the native Siberians were 'driven to fire the first shot' is misleading indeed. Being told over and over you must pay your debts, the ones that you agreed to, isn't exactly being backed into a corner. These scattered Mongol tribes pulled these shenanigans constantly, and would resort to a level of brutality beyond the ken of the Europeans. They would not fight man to man, as per the knightly credos, but slaughter women and children and revel in their bloodletting. Chivalry between armies did not exist. And you're right, when a group or tribe of Mongols were soundly thrashed they gave up the encounter as counter productive.

You must’ve did a lil digging for that info!! I’m confused why you keep saying native tribes and what not? That automatically gives people the impression that the tribes were composed of Inuit people. But the u.s. congress did an investigation into Indian affairs and said the Yamasi Indians were Negros.
