Piscataway tribe
The Piscataway also referred to as the Piscataway Indian Nation, are Native Americans, once constituting the most populous and powerful Native polities of the Chesapeake Bay region. They spoke Algonquian Piscataway, a dialect of Nanticoke. One of their neighboring tribes, with whom they merged after a massive decline of population following two centuries of interactions with European settlers, called them ''Conoy.''
Two major groups representing Piscataway descendants received state recognition as Native American tribes in 2012: the Piscataway Indian Nation and Tayac Territory〔Witte, Brian. ("Md. Formally Recognizes 2 American Indian Groups." ), ''NBC Washington,'' 9 Jan 2011, Retrieved 10 Jan 2011〕〔("Piscataway Indian Nation and Tayac Territory." ) (retrieved 4 Jan 2011)〕 and the Piscataway Conoy Tribe of Maryland.〔〔("Piscataway Conoy Tribe of Maryland." ) (retrieved 4 Jan 2011)(bad link 12 Dec 2013)〕 Within the latter group was included the Piscataway Conoy Confederacy and Sub-Tribes and the Cedarville Band of Piscataway Indians.〔〔("The Cedarville Band of Piscataway Indians." ) (retrieved 4 Jan 2011)(holder page only 12 Dec 2013)〕 All these groups are located in Southern Maryland. None is federally recognized.

The Piscataway were recorded by the English (in days before uniform spelling) as the Pascatowies, Paschatoway, Pazaticans, Pascoticons, Paskattaway, Pascatacon, Piscattaway, and Puscattawy. They were also referred to by the names of their villages: Moyaonce, Accotick or Accokicke or Accokeek, Potapaco or Portotoack, Sacayo or Sachia, Zakiah, Yaocomaco or Youcomako or Yeocomico, or Wicomicons.
Related Algonquian-speaking tribes included the Anacostan, Chincopin, Choptico, Doeg or Dogue or Taux, Tauxeneen, Mattawoman, and Pamunkey. Possibly slightly more distantly related tribes included the Accomac, Assateague, Choptank, Nanticoke, Patuxent, Pokomoke, Tockwogh and Wicomoco.〔Christian F. Feest, "Nanticoke and Neighboring Tribes", in Sturtevant and Trigger, p. 250〕
