This is a collection of photos, words & video clips about the Powhatan People.. and culture. There is also a companion video to this one.., with some important teachings and “facts“, about “Matowa/Matoaka“ (the REAL “Pocahontas)...also just added in this channel. ---------------------- The Powhatan People are an Indigenous tribe traditionally, from Virginia. In some instances, “The Powhatan” may refer to one of the leaders of the people. This is most commonly the case in historical writings, by the English. The Powhatans have also been known as Virginia Algonquians, as the Powhatan language is an eastern-Algonquian language, also known as: Virginia Algonquian. It is estimated, that there were about 14,000–21,000 Powhatan people in eastern Virginia, when the English colonized Jamestown in 1607. Many of the “First Families” of Virginia have both English and Virginia Algonquian ancestry. --------------------------- I claim no ownership of any of the clips, video and words expressed in this employ my borrowing of them with much respect and thanks.
