Academics have made the distinction North Anthracite Coal Field and South Anthracite Coal Field (each of Pennsylvania),[1]the lower region bearing the further classification Anthracite Uplands[2]in physical geology.The region's combined population was 890,121 people as of the 2010 census. Many of the place names in the region are from the Delaware Indians (the self-named Lenape peoples) and the powerful Susquehannock nation, an Iroquoian people who dominated the Susquehanna valley in the 16th and 17th-century when Dutch, Swedish and French migrants were exploring North America and founding settlements along the Atlantic Seaboard.The Coal region or Pennsylvania Anthracite region or fields is home to the largest known deposits of anthracite coal found in the Americas, with an estimated reserve of seven billion short tons.[3]It is these deposits that provide the region with its nickname. The discovery of anthracite coal was first made in the Schuylkill County by a hunter in 1791, 16 years after the North Field saw its first mine.
