∙ 9y agoThe phrase Indian Summer is believed to have come from the early settlers to the United States. When the weather would turn cool they felt they could relax and not worry about the Native Americans. However, it would suddenly warm up again and the Native Americans would come back, they referred to this warming up during colder weather as Indian Summer.
