History

The Santee people live in an area around the present-day town of Santee, South Carolina. The Santee are one of the last Siouan-speaking tribes in North America to live outside of the Great Plains. Prior to the arrival of Europeans in the New World, Siouan-speaking tribes had begun migrating to the Great Plains. However, some, like the Santee, remained behind in the historic homelands of modern-day Virginia, Maryland, and the Carolinas.
