Yeah. There was a hell of a lot of them, beforre they got cleared out.
They lived in the deep dark woods.  That was most of Eastern North
America. 
They lived in wood houses. And walled their villages with  poles. Eastern 
folks weren't near as nomadic as those on the plains, who lived in teepees

because A. They're ****table, and B. Buffalo have a lot of skin. And even 
when they were afoot, they had to follow the buffalo.

You're grandfather doesn't say "Hi. I'm John. I'm 400 years old", like  he

did his new partner.
At least Conor McCleod would go back to Scotland and come back as his own 
long lost nephew and heir.
