Yes, some Indigenous peoples of the Eastern Woodlands utilized sign language as a means of communication, particularly for trade and intertribal interactions. One notable example is the use of a sign language known as "Eastern Woodland Sign Language," which facilitated communication among different tribes and with non-Indigenous people. This visual language helped overcome language barriers and was often used in conjunction with spoken languages.
