Pasakunamon {Pd-sa-kun-d^-nion, 'pull- 

 ing corn,' according to Morgan; but 

 properly pnakunemen, 'pulling by hand'

 Delawares. — Morgan, Anc. Soc, 172, 1877.

Pascagoula (Choctaw: 'bread people', 

 from jjaska 'bread,' ok-la 'people'). A 

 small tribe of Indians formerly living 

 on Pascagoula r. in s. Mississippi, in inti- 

 mate connection with the Biloxi, but 

 now extinct as a separate division. As 

 no vocabulary of their language has been 

 preserved, nor their own tribal name, 

 their ethnic relations are conjectural; 

 but from their intimate connection from 

 1699 to the 19th century with the Biloxi, 

 it is possible that they were Siouan. 



The first mention of them is that of 

 Iberville in 1699 (Margry, Dec, iv, 193, 

 1880), who refers to the village of the 

 Bilocchy (Biloxi), Pascoboula (Pasca- 

 goula), and Moctobi, to reach which from 

 Biloxi bay took 2h days. There were 

 really three villages, and a little farther 

 on (ibid., 195) , he speaks of the three as 

 being on Pascagoula r., a short distance 

 apart. As the three together, according 

 to Sauvole (ibid., 451), did not contain 

 more than 20 cabins, the estimate of 100 

 families is ample. About 1764, in com- 

 pany with the Biloxi and several other 

 tribes, they determined to leave the 

 neighborhood of Moljile, and in 1 784 were 

 found settled on the e. side of the Mis- 

 sissippi, 10 m. above the village of the 

 Tunica. Together with the neighboring 

 Biloxi they were estimated at 20 war- 

 riors, probably about 75 souls. Before 

 1791, however, they had moved up Red 

 r. and settled at the confluence of that 

 stream with Bayou Rigolet du Bon Dieu. 

 The name of their chief at that time was 

 Du Blanc. About 1795 they sold their 

 lands here to Miller and Fulton, and fol- 

 lowed the Biloxi to Bayou Bceuf, settling 

 between them and the Choctaw. Later 

 they sold these lands to the same parties, 

 the sale being confirmed by the United 

 States in 18ft5, but probably continued to 

 reside in the neighborhood, where they 

 died off or became incorporated with the 

 Biloxi and Choctaw. Morse in 1822 



enumerated three distinct bands of Pas- 

 cagoula, two on Red r. and a third on a 

 branch of the Neches, aggregating 240 

 souls; but probably some mistake was 

 made, as the Biloxi are given as number- 

 ing only 70. (a. s. g. j. r. s. )

PasMpaho {Pmhlpahowa, 'He touches 

 lightly in passing.' — W. J.). A promi- 

 nent Sauk chief, belonging to one of the 

 Fish clans, whose name is usually but 

 improperly translated "Stabber." He 

 was born about 1760, and first came 

 into public notice when he signed, as 

 principal chief of the Sauk, the treaty of 

 St Louis, Mo., Nov. 3, 1804, by which 

 the allied Sauk and Foxes ceded to the 

 United States their lands in Illinois and 

 Wisconsin. This was the treaty repudi- 

 ated by Black Hawk and which ulti- 

 mately brought on the so-called Black 

 Hawk war of 1832. Little is known of 

 Pashipaho's career as a warrior, but it is 

 probable that he was highly regarded by 

 his tribesmen as a fighting man, for it 

 was under his leadership that the Iowa 

 were defeated in a decisive battle on Des
