		The war is named after the main leader of the Indian side, Metacomet, known to the English as "King Philip".
		Metacomet, known to the English as "King Philip," HRH Crowned Prince of Rhode Island, became Sachem of the Pokanoket and Grand Sachem of the Wampanoag Confederacy after the suspicious death of his older brother, the Grand Sachem Wamsutta, or "King Alexander", in 1662.
