Colonel [[James Oglethorpe]] confirms that they had 5,000 warriors in 1739 (Ga. Coll. Rec., V). Also according to Ga. Coll. Rec., V an epidemic reduced them "by almost one-half" in 1738, but this source doesn't specify how numerous they were before the epidemic. Perhaps this source exaggerates the casualties caused by that epidemic, and in fact it killed just around 1,000 warriors.|group=Note}}<ref>{{Cite book |last=Krzywicki |first=Ludwik |url=https://dn790004.ca.archive.org/0/items/b29980112/b29980112.pdf |title=Primitive society and its vital statistics |publisher=Macmillan |year=1934 |series=Publications of the Polish Sociological Institute |location=London |pages=500–503}}</ref>
