Maasaw shared about his books, discoveries, and projects involving protecting Indigenous fishing weirs in the Potomac River. He also talked about his spiritual calling that has led him to identify 35 Indigenous sites from Virginia to Canada. Join us in September when Maasaw returns for one final book signing at The Plaster Museum in Historical Bluemont Va.

​Here in what is now called Loudoun County, Virginia, specifically let us acknowledge this space as the ancestral homelands and a gateway of three distinct language families: the Algonquin, Iroquoian, and Siouan speaking peoples. We honor the ancestors and acknowledge the Manahoac, Shawandasse Tula/Shawanwaki/Shawnee, Patawomeck, and Piscataway/Conoy, Susquehannock, Haudenosaunee/Tuscarora; and displacement, dispossession; and continued presence of the following recognized tribes:  Cheroenhaka Nottoway, Chickahominy, Eastern Chickahominy, Mattaponi, Monacan, Nansemond, Nottoway, Patawomeck, Pamunkey, Rappahannock, and Upper Mattaponi; as well as an unknown number of extinct tribes.
