Tutelo Kinship Terms

[Scott Collins]

 “Although Lederer provided considerable detail concerning culture and religion, including information on matrilineal clans, Speck (1938a:11) and Feest (1975:152) pointed out that this information was obtained from Lederer’s guides and refers to the Pamunkey or Susquehannock of the coastal plain rather than to the piedmont Siouans, which view had been accepted previously (Mooney 1894; Dorsey 1894a; Swanton 1905). There is no evidence that Virginia Siouan society was organized in clans. What was later recorded of Tutelo kinship terminology suggests bilateral social organization (Speck and Schaeffer 1942:574).

 I'm trying find out if the statement made about Tutelo kinship terms is correct in that Tutelo kinship terms have been said to be representative of bi-lateral clan structures.
