INDIAN RELICS ARE
FOUND IN TALLADEGA

Indians Existed in State
Years Ago

Montgomery. July 3O.1-(Special.) }
Indian relics showing the former exis-
tence of an old village in Talladega
county, which was probably the most
easterly settlement of the Natehez tribe
of Indians on the continent. have been
discovered by John T.. Scott of Mont
gomery, member of the Alabama
Anthropologlcal society.
The discovery is believed to be one
OF the most important from an anthro-
biological point of view that has been
made in this state in a number of
years. According 10 DIR. Thomas NJ.
owen, director of the state department
of archives and history, there have
been numerous historical references to
an old settlement of the Natchez tribe
in that part of Alabama, but the
anthropologist had failed to discover it,
Mr.. Scott told of his discovery In a
notable address, which he delivered at
the July meeting of the Alabama An
thropologieal society.
