In the July, 1936 and January, 1937 numbers of American Antiquity, under the head of “Correspondence,” there were published certain data, bearing mostly on the subject of the burial customs of the Indians of eastern Maryland, which I had gathered together from several contemporary sources. In this connection I called attention to the occurrence in Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina of place-names of more or less ancient date which embody the word “quiackeson,” or another of its various forms, giving this as evidence of the former existence of the mortuary temples called “quiackeson houses” in those places.
