Sidis, William J.
William James
Sidis (1898-1944) was considered to be a prodigy during the early part of the 20th century, although many have questioned claims regarding his intellectual prowess(a).>Nevertheless, he was enrolled at Harvard University when he was just 11 years old!(c)<
Around 1935 he wrote The Tribes and the States[1181] , which dealt with the prehistory of the Native Americans.

The book was not completed or published at the time, but is available today as a Kindle ebook.
