| dc.description.abstract | This paper collects sources of maps, treaties, and other relevant writing to explore the location of the Chickasaw Nation since the eighteenth century. In addition, I will use my learning of cartographic aspects and techniques to compare historic spatial depictions of the Indigenous community to that of their current geographic representations. Prior to discussing such findings, it is pertinent to acknowledge that studies on any Native entity are complex, as even a narrow scope often requires researchers to have a broader understanding of the historical, political, and cultural influences at play. Thus, a literature review is necessarily included for accurate descriptions of such. | |
