Talk:Pokanoket

lede
"Prior to European colonization, the Pokanoket were the leadership of the tribal groups that make up the modern-day Wampanoag Nation. However, ethnically Pokanoket groups and their neighbors did not begin to refer to themselves as Wampanoag until after King Philip's War, when Pokanoket identity was criminalized in Rhode Island and Massachusetts. Thus, while all Pokanoket are Wampanoag (being one tribe among several), not all Wampanoag are ethnically Pokanoket. The Pokanoket are the indigenous group in the first Thanksgiving story, although it is speculated that no meal was actually shared between the Pokanoket and English settlers, and the former did not necessarily welcome colonization." This paragraph appears to be lifted virtually verbatim from. Manannan67 (talk) 02:55, 10 December 2019 (UTC)

Echoing the IP's question about the identity of these people, I'm moving a completely unreferenced table from the main article to the talk page. If anyone can provide good references, these people can be returned to the main article. Yuchitown (talk) 23:05, 6 November 2022 (UTC)Yuchitown
