If we also consider the years it took to reduce all of this magnificence to ruins we must suppose that these people existed when many ancient Oriental cities were being founded. The ancestors of our present . Indian followed this vrace of wonderful craftsmen. They seem rot to have been related to their ' predecessors since they had no culture or refinement, no litetature and their art wa^ even more primitive than that of the mound builders. The origin of these Indians has long been a debated question among the archaeologists. One conjecture is that the American Indians are a race who originated in the Western Hemisphere. Those who believe this, point out that the peculiarities of physical structure preclude the possibility of a common parentage to the rest of mankind. The hair of the Indian is round, that of the white man is oval, and the black man's hair Is flat.

The braves who took refuge ;:e:e were finally beseiged by the Pottowatomies and were felled by hunger and thiitt. In the later history of northwestern Illinois, the Sacs and Poxes figured most prominently. History pictures these tribes as having been courageous, shrewd and enterprising. These early Indians lived by hunting. This art not only supplied them with food and clothing but satisfied their sense of achievement and love of distinction. Their dwellings were simple but in their councils they had the nucleus of a political organization. Each family was sufficient unto itself and commerce was virtually unknown. Their disputes were settled primitively on the theory of "an eye for an eye" and "a tooth for a tooth." Out of this background of war among the Indians and war with the Indians emerged our great state of Illinois in 1818.
