The Pee Dee tribe (also spelled Pedee and Peedee) are a nation of American Indians of the southeast United States; their population is concentrated in the Piedmont of present-day South Carolina. Four tribes claiming Pee Dee descent have been officially recognized by the state since 2005; none has federal recognition. In the 17th and 18th centuries English colonists named the Pee Dee River and the Pee Dee region of South Carolina for the nation.
