Description: The Shawnee materials in the Bruce L. Pearson Papers reflect his work with the Absentee Shawnee Tribe in Oklahoma on the Shawnee language. Most significant is a field notebook in Series IV (begun in 1969 and continuing through the 1980s and 1990s), all of Series II, and a partially arranged index card file in Series IX. Series II contains a wide range of materials including lexica (variously published and unpublished sources), collected research by others, correspondence, research notes, and materials produced by the Absentee Shawnee tribe. There is also Shawnee material scattered in Series V (one of the "Southeastern Conference On Linguistics" folders), Series VI (see under Bierhorst, Price, and Taukchiray), and VIII (Amoena Norcross's dissertation).
