More than 2,000 people are enrolled members of the Wampanoag tribe, although many have very mixed ancestry with other native groups and with white settlers. They live at Watuppa Wampanoag Reservation on Martha's Vineyard and in small groups at Gay Head, New Bedford, Herring Pond, Fall River and elsewhere in Massachusetts.

How did wampanoag Indians make spears?
They made spears from tree branches that were as straight as they could find. The smaller branches were removed from the main branch, and then the bark was removed. To make the shaft more straight it was held over a fire until the wood started to sizzle like a sausage, then pressure was applied to straighten it out. After straightening, it was laid flat to dry. I know that Indians used arrow straighteners made from bone or wood to straighten arrow shafts, and they may have used larger straighteners for spear shafts. After straightening the spear shaft and letting it dry, a notch was cut into the larger end of the shaft and the point inserted. Hide glue or pitch made from hardwood trees and charcoal was also sometimes used as a glue to aid in holding the the point in the shaft. After the pitch or hide glue dried, wet sinew, then wet rawhide lace was wrapped tightly around the shaft and the point to hold it in place. When sinew and rawhide dry it shrinks and it secures the spear point in place. Native Americans then may have applied heat to the rawhide to make it even tighter, but I am not sure. I do know that rawhide shields are made by heating rawhide underneath a fire to make it shrink and thicken and made tougher.

What was the relationship of the wampanoag with the narragansett?
The Wampanoag tribes (including the Massachusett, Nauset, Nantucket and Pennacook) were located in the area that became eastern Massachusetts. They spoke a language called Natick.
The Narragansett tribe were immediately to their south in the area that became Rhode Island. They seem to have been closely related to the Wampanoags, but the Narragansett clearly dominated them and other small groups in the same area, and forced them to pay tribute in the form of deer hides, shell beads and so on. The Narragansett language is almost identical to Natick.
Examples of words in the two languages are:
English......................Natick...........................Narragansett
crow, raven................konkont........................kaukont
deer...........................ahtuk............................attuk
it is broken.................poksheau......................pokesha
ten..............................piuk..............................piuck
from where?................tohnoh.........................tunna
