Pee Dee People

Pee Dee People

The Pee Dee tribe (also spelled Pedee and Peedee) are a nation of Native Americans of the southeast United States, especially the Piedmont of present-day South Carolina. Several tribes claiming Pee Dee descent have been officially recognized by the state since 2005, although none has federal recognition. The Pee Dee River and the Pee Dee region of South Carolina were named for the nation. Scholars are unsure of what language they spoke, although it may have been of the Siouan family, as were the languages of neighboring small tribes in the Piedmont region.

Famous quotes containing the words pee and/or people:

    When writers meet they are truculent, indifferent, or over-polite. Then comes the inevitable moment. A shows B that he has read something of B’s. Will B show A? If not, then A hates B, if yes, then all is well. The only other way for writers to meet is to share a quick pee over a common lamp-post.
    Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)

    All that people have they will give to save their lives.
    Bible: Hebrew, Job 2:4.

    Satan to God.
