Description: The bulk of the Wyandot materials in the Bruce L. Pearson Papers are in Series III. Wyandot, reflecting Pearson's work with the Wyandotte Nation of Oklahoma. There is also notable correspondence in Series VI with Wes Taukchiray, and with John Bierhorst, and a folder of students' essays in Series VII. Pearson did not conduct fieldwork on Wendat, but conducted historical research and analysis. Of note are compiled vocabularies and language analysis, community publications, conference presentations, a speech by Leaford Bearskin, and some interpretations of the documentation of Marius Barbeau, including songs on CD sung by Richard Zane Smith. There is a small amount of comparative material with Mohawk, Seneca, Onondaga and Maya in Series III.
