	Narragansett
		Narragansett is an English corruption of Nanhigganeuck, their actual name meaning "people of the small point." The Dutch used the shortened form of Nahican.
		However, the Narragansett grew increasingly alarmed at the growing power of Uncas and in 1640 formed an alliance with the Pocumtuc and Tunxis (Mattabesic) against the Mohegan.
		The Narragansett were unable to regain their reserve until the settlement of a lengthy lawsuit in 1978.

	Narragansett Language and the Narragansett Indian Tribe (Nipmuc, Mohegans, Nanigansek)
		Language: Narragansett was an Algonkian language, closely related to Mohegan (Pequot) and Massachusett (Wampanoag).
		People: The Narragansett are considered by most historians to be a sub-tribe of the Mohegans, though their language may have been closer to that of the Wampanoag.
		In particular, the Narragansett, Nipmuc, and Niantic tribes were driven together under the general Mohegan rubric; other Narragansetts took refuge with the Abenakis or Stockbridge Indians, assimilating into those cultures.

	Tennessee Walking horse - The Narragansett Pacer Blood
		The Narragansett Pacer was established as the aristocrat among horses in the colonies.
		When the Narragansett Pacers were sent back to the mainland, one of the chief areas they were imported to was Virginia and North Carolina which in turn supplied the utility mares brought to Middle Tennessee around 1800.
		Although the Narragansett Pacer blood had been mixed with that of the Canadian Pacer, the gaits were still pure, and without a doubt the American Saddlebred, the Standardbred, and the Tennessee Walking Horse owe much of their existence to these noble little Rhode Island horses.
