Seminole Music
About this book
The Seminole of Florida are a Muskhogean tribe originally made up of immigrants who moved down into Florida from the Lower Creek towns on the Chattahoochee River. Their tribal name is derived from a Creek word meaning "separatist" or "runaway, " suggesting that they lack the permanent background of the tribes whose music had previously been studied.
Presents 243 Seminole songs, including the songs of 28 social dances, songs for success in hunting and in the ball game, songs used in the treatment of the sick, and songs connected with legends. Specimens include a woman's costume and three canoe models showing the types of canoes used by the Seminole.
