Siouan References in Reprint (Woccon & Tutelo)

[Koontz John E]

I'd like to briefly mention the availability of a couple of reprints of
potential interest to Siouanists, from Evolution Publishing
(http://www.evolpub.com).  I've seen:

Lawson, John.  1998 (1709).  A Vocabulary of Woccon.  33 pp.

Hale, Horatio.  2001 (1883).  The Tutelo Language.  109 pp.

These are a bit expensive, compared to the cost of xeroxing, say, the Hale
article from the fairly accessible serial publications, but there are
advantages to having a nicely bound copy of a reference.  The printing of
Lawson contains convenient references to recent work, including Richard
Carter's essential analysis of the Woccon materials.  Unfortunately, the
printing of Hale overlooks the less accessible, but equally important work
that has been done recently on Tutelo, including Mithun's work with a
semi-speaker of Tutelo, and Oliverio's extremely important dissertation on
Tutelo (A Grammar and Dictionary of Tutelo), and various papers by Rankin
and Oliverio.  For these, see
