The Involution of Wampum as Currency: The Story Told by the Colonial Ordinances of New Netherland, 1641-1662 is a historical book written by Simon Wolf Rosendale in 1895. The book explores the evolution of wampum, a traditional Native American currency made from shell beads, and its use as a form of currency in the Dutch colony of New Netherland during the mid-17th century. Rosendale examines the colonial ordinances that were put in place during this time period to regulate the use of wampum as currency, as well as the economic and social factors that led to its decline in value and eventual replacement by other forms of currency. The book provides a detailed analysis of the role that wampum played in the economy of New Netherland, and the impact that it had on both the European colonists and the Native American tribes who used it as a form of exchange.Overall, The Involution of Wampum as Currency offers a unique perspective on the history of currency in the United States, and sheds light on the complex interactions between different cultures and economies during the colonial period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
