Native Americans in western and eastern Connecticut had decidedly different experiences when white European settlers arrived. This episode focuses on the Native Americans of western Connecticut, who avoided direct involvement in the brutal Indian Wars #1 and #2 (Pequot War and King Phillip’s War). Two reservations exist in western CT, and they are quite small, when compared to those found elsewhere throughout the U.S. Learn about the history and the myths of past Native American activities along the Housatonic and Still Rivers from Western Connecticut State University Professor Emeritus of Anthropology, Dr. Laurie Weinstein.
