| Notes | Crawfish and lobsters constituted a large part of the Croatan diet though Harriot focused more on fish in his discussion of the native diet. |
Creuises – In Hariot, this term is listed among other shellfish on pg. 757. Quinn’s note on pg. 361 suggests, however, that this term was used to refer to crayfish and lobsters, which the OED supports in its definition of “crayfish” as a variant spelling. - Matt
