LONG ISLAND INDIANS
At the time of its first settlement by the Dutch
and English, Long Island was occupied by thir-
teen distinct tribes of Indians - the Canarse's,
Rockaway's, Merikoke's, Marsapeague's, Seca-
togue's and Patchogue's in the south, the Matine-
cocks, Nissaquogue's, Setauket's and Corchaug's
in the north, and the Shinecock's, Manhasset's
and Montauk's in the east. Historians say these
tribes sprang from the Delawares and Mohawks.
A large number of towns, villages, beaches,
rivers, streets, etc., on Long Island are named
after its Indian tribes or chiefs, or taken from
Indian names.
