"Antoine-Simon Le Page du Pratz (1695? -1775) was an ethnographer, historian, and naturalist. He was born either in the Netherlands or France and was raised in the latter country ... Le Page lived in Louisiana from 1718 to 1734, the first eight of those years at Natchez, Mississippi ... In 1758 appeared the three octavo volumes of the Histoire de la Louisiane. Part of the book is devoted to ethnographic description of the native peoples of Louisiana, particularly the Natchez. Other sections describe the history of the colony, from the Spanish and French explorers of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries through establishment of the French settlements along the Mississippi"--From Google Books
