4.9/5 (18375 ratings)

Description:Excerpt from The Pamunkey Indians of Virginia The leading tribe of the Powhatan confederacy was that from which Pamunkey river in eastern Virginia takes its name. Strongest in numbers, this tribe has also proved strongest in vitality; a few tri ing remnants and a few uncertain and feeble strains of blood only remain of the other tribes, but the Pamunkey Indians, albeit with modified manners, impoverished blood, and much-dimmed prestige, are still rep resented on the original hunting ground by a lineal remnant of the original tribe. The language of Powhatan and his contemporaries is lost among their descendants; the broad realm of early days is reduced to a few paltry acres; the very existence of the tribe is hardly known throughout the state and the country; yet in some degree the old pride of blood and savage aristocracy persist - and it is undoubtedly to these characteristics that the present existence of the Pamunkey tribe is to be ascribed.
