The Wampanoag are a Native American tribe originally from the northeastern United States, primarily located in present-day Massachusetts and Rhode Island. The name "Wampanoag" translates to "People of the First Light," referring to their location in the east where the sun rises. They are known for their role in early American history, particularly their interactions with English settlers, including the Pilgrims, in the early 17th century. Today, the Wampanoag continue to preserve their culture and heritage while engaging in various community and economic initiatives.
