Ittimokla (Peace) in the Yamssee tongue.

The Childrens role in the Yamassee tribe, was similar to the adults.

The female children, would generally stay around the Women or Matriarchs of the tribe to learn their role, to be prepared for when they came of age in the tribe.

Female children were also taught the Traditions of the women, and mostly Farming, and weaving.

This was not limited to making of ceramics and creation of Red Dye, for the items made and preparation for food.

There was always plenty of time for the children to play, Yamassee Games and socialize once the days work was done which normally started first thing in the morning, in the form of food preparations & task. But this varied depending on the Assignments a family group would take on in the Entire Village or Area.

The males would learn the ways to be hunter gathers, and Protectors of the tribe!

Learning how to make long bows, their own Shawdow Knives and prepare to become apart of the First Warrior level, which could lead to them being possible candidate for Lead Warrior of a group.

Young men also were prepared for their coming of age cermony were he was considered a (Nokusi) man of the Tribe, and take on a wife.

Games for young men were, practicing with their bow and arrow, mock fights to show of strength & more !
