Abstract
The Connestee phase has evidence of artifacts (including some pottery) and ideas that relate directly to Ohio Hopewell. Chapman describes several sites from this phase that are found in western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee. They appear to have been part of an exchange system in which mica from North Carolina along with steatite and black bear were moved along old Indian trails to Ohio. Chapman states that only "…a thin veneer of midwestern influence [was] superimposed over [these] local Middle Woodland phases…' (page 161).
