Description
It all began thousands of years ago when Algonquin-speaking peoples settled along the northeast coast of North America. Before the first European explorers made the fatal contact in the early 1600s, there were many settled native communities including 200 members of a tribe living at present-day Rye Harbor in 1606 as reported by Champlain. Eight islands located six miles off Rye’s coast had become a fishing mecca for native peoples for years as well as Portuguese fishermen starting in the 1500s and by the early 1600s European fishermen had established permanent settlements there that thrived until the 1800s.
