First Immigrants: Native American Settlement of North Carolina
Record #:
2301
Author(s):
Claggett, Stephen
Abstract:
Before English colonists arrived, Native Americans had lived in the state 12,000 years. Thirty tribes totaling 100,000 occupied the state in the late 1500s, but colonial wars and diseases rapidly decreased that number to 20,000 in 1800.
