Welcome! We hope you enjoy your visit with us and that you leave with a better
understanding of the history and culture of the Piscataway people.
For centuries, our ancestors inhabited the woodlands of southern Maryland. Today, on
the same land between the Potomac River and Chesapeake Bay, we continue to
celebrate our rich heritage. Despite today's challenges, we are working hard to pass on
our customs, values and history to current and future generations of Piscataway.
Additionally, it is our hope that an acknowledgement of the contributions made by the
indigenous people of Maryland will lead to a greater appreciation and more complete
understanding of the history and people of this state and nation..
If you plan to visit Washington, D.C. or southern Maryland sometime—or even live in the
area—please stop by and see us. We are conveniently located just twenty miles south of
the nation’s capital. For a map and directions, simply click on "Directions"
