Note 497 — THE WAMPANOAGS IN THE SEVENTEENTH CENTURY An Ethnohistorical Study (continued 2)

Williams, p. 78. There is not a great deal of specific information on the herbal remedies used by the Wampanoags and their neighbors. Writing of herbal remedies over the entire Northeastern Algonquian area, Speck notes that there is variation from area to area and probably among curers within a single area as to what herb was used for what symptom.
