Abstract
This is an anthropological report on the aboriginal use and occupancy of land known as Royce Area 332; a tract of land in the Arrowhead District of extreme northeastern Minnesota between Lake Superior and the international boundary between the United States and Canada. This document, compiled primarily from early historical accounts, covers the period from 1679-1775. Hickerson describes the location and names of various Chippewa bands, the topography of the region, settlement patterns, food quest activities, land use, hunting and trapping, warfare, and trade relations with the Hudson Bay Company and the American Fur Company. The page references in the Table of Contents (pp. 11-12) refer to the original pagination of this work and not to the repaginated version as it appears here.
