Question
This tribe’s history was discussed in a 1930s newspaper founded by Ernest Hazard and Princess Red Wing that was titled for its Dawn. Captives tortured by this tribe in present-day Cumberland are commemorated by a monument at Nine Men’s Misery. In 1877, neglectful workers blew up Slate Rock, where members of this tribe had legendarily asked “What cheer, netop?” This tribe’s language is the origin of the English words “powwow,” “squash,” and “papoose,” as noted in an early (*) ethnolinguistic study. Members of this tribe joined the Eastern Niantics after Canonchet’s loss in the Great Swamp Fight. The language of this tribe is the primary subject of A Key into the Language of America, penned by a Baptist theologian who befriended them after his expulsion from the Massachusetts Bay Colony. For 10 points, Roger Williams acquired Providence Plantations from what tribe that names a nearby bay? ■END■
