Dasamongueponke
The Dasamongueponke (or Dasamonguepeuk) is the name given to a Native American tribe and also the name of a village encountered by the English during their late 16th century attempts to settle and establish permanent colonies in what is now North Carolina, known at the time as Virginia. They formed a part of the Native American group known as the Carolina Algonquian Indians, and spoke the now extinct Carolina Algonquian language.

Sir Richard Grenville was the leader of the 1585 expedition which first attempted to land English conquerors on Roanoke island. When Grenville left Roanoke, he left behind fifteen men, battle-hardened soldiers. When Governor John White returned in 1587 he searched for the fifteen, but found only bones.〔Milton, p.217〕 White quickly made contact with friendly natives led by Chief Manteo, who explained to him that the lost fifteen had been killed by hostile Secotan, Aquascogoc and Dasamongueponke warriors,〔Milton, p.218〕 choosing a time and place of attack "of great advantage to the savages".〔Milton, p.220〕
On August 8, 1587 White led a dawn attack on the Dasamongueponkes that went disastrously wrong. White and his soldiers entered the Dasamongueponke village in the morning "so early that it was yet dark",〔(Miller, Lee, p.131 ) Retrieved April 2011〕 but savagely attacked a group of hitherto friendly Indians, killing one and wounding many. "We were deceaved", White claimed in his journal, "for the savages were our friendes". Henceforth relations with the local tribes would steadily deteriorate.〔Milton, p.235〕
Chief Manteo was granted the title of baron, the Lord of Roanoke and Dasamongueponke - the first peer created by the English in North America.
