This article by Rogers and Taylor is a concise culture summary of Ojibwa ethnography through four major historical phases: the early fur trade period of 1670-1821; the early contact traditional period of 1821-1900; the late contact traditional period of 1900-1950; and the modern period following 1950. Each phase is discussed in turn with particular emphasis on culture change and acculturation.The work concludes with a detailed synonymy and an evaluation of the primary documents relevant to each period outlined above.
