About Us
Honoring the Past, of the Kicotan Indigenous people by Empowering the Present, Preserving the Future.
The Kicotan Nation is a sovereign Indigenous community rooted in the rich traditions, resilience, and spiritual heritage of our ancestors. We are the descendants of the original Kicotan people—an Algonquian-speaking nation whose presence along the Chesapeake Bay predates European contact. Our story is one of endurance, cultural preservation, and reconnection.
The “About Us” section provides a deeper understanding of who we are, what we stand for, and how we continue to uphold our ancestral responsibilities. Through our commitment to truth, governance, and intergenerational knowledge, we ensure that the voice of the Kicotan Nation remains strong and respected.
