The Pequots were a Native American tribe primarily located in what is now Connecticut. They played a significant role in early American colonial history, particularly during the Pequot War (1636-1638), which was one of the first major conflicts between Native Americans and English settlers. The war resulted in a devastating defeat for the Pequot, leading to their near annihilation and displacement, which dramatically altered the balance of power in the region and set a precedent for future colonial-Native American relations. Their story highlights the complexities and tragedies of early colonial encounters and the impact of European expansion on Indigenous populations.
