Additional Notes:
Dutch ..... Vroeger gebruikt om te verwijzen naar prehistorische Noord-Amerikanen die de dalen de Ohio en de Mississippi en andere gebieden bewoonden, en werden gekenmerkt doordat ze terpen oprichtten. Men denkt nu dat het niet om één cultuur ging, maar dat de terpen waren gemaakt door allerlei volkeren en met diverse doelen.
