| Hammet, J.E. 1997 | Related Info | "Bartram noted that (with the exception of peach) these trees "are natives of the forest, yet they thrive better and are more fruitful in cultivated plantations, and the fruit is in great estimation with the present generation of Indians, particular juglans exalta, common called shell-barked hiccory". Prescribed burning would have been an unlikely tool for management of hickory trees, as most species are highly susceptible to fire. However, an opening of the forest canopy by thinning and weeding non-fruit-bearing trees would have resulted in larger, higher-yielding trees". |

| Gardner, P.S. 1997 | Archaeological studies have demonstrated that nuts preserved as nutshell (walnut, hickory and hazelnut species) were an important wild food resource utilized by Late Woodland indigenous peoples of central and southern Indiana prior to 700 A.D. through approximately 1450 A.D. Results of these studies indicate that nut use declined over the Late Woodland period prior to 700 A.D. to 1450 A.D. probably due to increased cultivation of fall-maturing crops like corn, and conflicts with gathering nuts during this same time period. |
