history
When European settlers first came to Long Island in the early 1600's, they found the island inhabited by Native Americans of the Algonquian group, loosely divided into bands, grouped together into a confederacy under the leadership of the Montauk Sachem, who was considered to be the ruler from Montauk to the western end of the island. Prior to contact, the Montauks, like many Native Americans, did not reside in one place but ranged over a territory. What we know about these early inhabitants is meager, since they did not have a written language. Read more about Montauk's history.
A sister publication “Greenport Visitor's Guide” is also published annually and is distributed on the North Fork of Long Island.
