The Susquehannock people also called the Conestoga (by the English) were Iroquoian-speaking Native Americans who lived in areas adjacent to the Susquehanna River and its tributaries from the southern part of what is now New York (and the lands of the Five Nations of the Iroquois Confederacy) through the entire height of East-central and central Pennsylvania (West of the Poconos and the Delaware nations) with lands extending beyond the mouth of the Susquehanna in Maryland along the West bank of the Potomac at the north end of the Chesapeake Bay.
