Wyandanch (sachem)
Wyandanch (born ''circa'' 1620 in Montauk, Long Island - died 1660) was a sachem of the Montaukett Indians in the mid-17th century on eastern Long Island.〔Strong, pg. 48〕 Initially he was a minor chief among the Montaukett,〔Strong, pg. 54〕 but due to his skillful manipulation of various alliances and his accommodating stance towards the European colonists who gave him substantial military and economic support, he eventually became an influential "alliance chief" (a sachem who was responsible for maintaining friendly relations between his tribe and the settlers).〔
==Early life==
Wyandanch (sometimes spelled as Wyandance) was born on Long Island roughly at the time of the pilgrims' arrival at Plymouth in present-day Massachusetts. While still young, in the second half of the 1630s Wyandanch heard about the almost total destruction of the Pequot in the Pequot War. He concluded that it was best to come to an understanding with the English colonists in southern New England and on Long Island.〔〔Wyckoff, pg. 12〕
