The Appalachian Saponi Nation (ASN) has been established to unite various lineages that continue to be denied their rights to self-determination of their indigenous identity.
ASN as lineal descendants of the Saponi and related Indians who occupied the regions of North Carolina and Virginia in pre-contact times; and specifically of those Saponi and related Indians who formally became tributary to Virginia under the Treaties of Middle Plantation in 1677 and 1680, and who under the subsequent treaty of 1713, with the Colony of Virginia agreed to join together as a single community.
This confederation formed a settlement at Fort Christianna along the Virginia/North Carolina border in what is now Brunswick County, Virginia. The confederation included the Saponi proper, the Occaneechi, the Eno, the Tutelo, and elements of other related tribes such as the Catawba. All of these communities were remnants of much larger Siouan communities that had lived in North Carolina and Virginia in prehistoric times.
In our most recent modern times; some bands have came back together to form new Saponi tribes, however some are still denying certain families such as the Collins family and other Surnames by citing The Racial Integrety Act of 1924, thus being further known as “FPC” Mullato, Melungeon, Metis, and other of mixed native blood.
We are assembling now to reclaim our Heritage and stolen Identity.
