Native American Tribes of the Northeast
This is a very incomplete list of Indian tribes of the Northeast, from the days of earliest European contact through more recent times. It is known that the Native Americans were sometimes referred to with more than one name and by more than one spelling. Also, they traveled and some who may once have been in the northeast are no longer here. You may recognize some place names.
