Pamunkey
The Pamunkey Indian Tribe is a federally recognized tribe and one of 11 Virginia Indian〔("Writer's Guide" ), Virginia Council on Indians, Commonwealth of Virginia, 2009〕 tribes recognized by the Commonwealth of Virginia. The historical tribe was part of the Powhatan paramountcy, made up of Algonquian-speaking tribes. The Powhatan paramount chiefdom was made up of over 30 tribes, estimated to total about 10,000-15,000 people at the time the English arrived in 1607.〔Rountree, Helen C. and E. Randolph Turner III. ''Before and After Jamestown: Virginia's Powhatans and Their Predecessors''. Gainesville: University Press of Florida, 2002.〕 The Pamunkey tribe made up about one-tenth to one-fifteenth of the total, as they numbered about 1,000 persons in 1607.〔
When the English arrived, the Pamunkey were one of the most powerful groups of the Powhatan chiefdom. They inhabited the coastal tidewater of Virginia on the north side of the James River near Chesapeake Bay.〔Egloff, Keith and Deborah Woodward. ''First People: The Early Indians of Virginia''. Charlottesville: The University Press of Virginia, 1992.〕〔Waugaman, Sandra F. and Danielle-Moretti-Langholtz, Ph.D. ''We're Still Here: Contemporary Virginia Indians Tell Their Stories.'' Richmond: Palari Publishing, 2006 (revised edition).〕
The Pamunkey tribe is one of only two that still retain reservation lands assigned by the 1646 and 1677 treaties with the English colonial government.〔Wood, Karenne (editor). ''The Virginia Indian Heritage Trail'', 2007.〕 The Pamunkey reservation is located on some of its ancestral land on the Pamunkey River adjacent to present-day King William County, Virginia. The Mattaponi reservation, the only other in the state, is nearby on the Mattaponi River.〔
