I want to remind all here that because so few survive Ocanachee and Yuchi mt DNA are not represented in Native American DNA studies.

Truth be told, E.P., if Mann and others are right the death count from European induced epidemics was such that any number of tribes may have been eradicated.

Hi min -
Too broad a generalization.
Epidemic diseases and new vectors (mosquitos) do not account for the loss of the Ocanachee and Yuchi.
There were well documented genocides as well.
