Definition: Seawan
Seawan
\Sea"wan\, Seawant
\Sea"want\, n.
The name used by the Algonquin Indians for the shell beads
which passed among the Indians as money.
[1913 Webster]
Note: Seawan was of two kinds;
wampum, white, and
suckanhock, black or purple, -- the former having
half the value of the latter. Many writers, however,
use the terms seawan and
wampum indiscriminately.
--Bartlett.
[1913 Webster]
