Pamlico Lang
The Pamlico (also ''Pampticough'', ''Pomouik'', ''Pomeiok'') were American Indians of North Carolina. They spoke an Algonquian language also known as ''Pamlico'' or ''Carolina Algonquian''. Geography The Pamlico Indians lived on the Pamlico River in North Carolina. Named after them were Pamlico Sound, the largest sound in North Carolina, and Pamlico County. They are one of the most southerly Algonquian tribes on the Atlantic seaboard and the most southerly ones for which scholars collected a vocabulary. History The Raleigh colonists referred to the Pamlico in 1585-86 by the name ''Pomoui''. 17th century history In 1696, smallpox, called "A great Mortality", devastated the Pamlico and neighboring Algonquian communities and reduced their populations. In 1701 the explorer John Lawson noted their Algonquian language and vocabulary (Lawson, 1860). By 1710 the Pamlico people were so limited that they lived in a single small village. By 1709 the total North Carolina ...

Slavery Among Native Americans In The United States
Slavery among Native Americans in the United States includes slavery by and slavery of Native Americans roughly within what is currently the United States of America. Tribal territories and the slave trade ranged over present-day borders. Some Native American tribes held war captives as slaves prior to and during European colonization. Some Native Americans were captured and sold by others into slavery to Europeans, while others were captured and sold by Europeans themselves. In the late 18th and 19th centuries, a small number of tribes, such as the five so-called "civilized tribes", began increasing their holding of African-American slaves.Smith, Ryan P. 6 March 2018.How Native American Slaveholders Complicate the Trail of Tears Narrative" ''Smithsonian Magazine''. European contact greatly influenced slavery as it existed among pre-contact Native Americans, particularly in scale. As they raided other tribes to capture slaves for sales to Europeans, they fell into destruc ...

Poteskeet
The Weapemeoc Indians were a small Native American tribe from northeastern North Carolina. They lived on the north shore of Albemarle Sound. that was first noted in literature in 1585/1586. At that time, they approximately had 700 to 800 people. They had a maritime culture. However, their cultural changed rapidly as European settlers introduced diseases and ultimately forced from their lands by 1780. Etymology The original meaning of ''Weapemeoc'' has been translated as "where shelter from the wind is sought". Swanton suggested it translated as "People of the First Light," or "People of the Dawn Land," similar to Wabanaki or Wampanoag. The tribe was also commonly referred to as Yeopim as a shortened alternative. It is predicted that this alternative name was the outcome of settlers attempting to pronounce the tribe's name. There were also many subdivisions of the tribe each with their own individual names. Pre-Colonial History The first recording of the Weapemeoc Indians was ...
