Iyannough
Iyannough (also Iyanough) was an American Indian sachem and leader of the Mattachiest (Mattakeese, a sub-group of the Wampanoag people) tribe of Cummaquid in the area of what is now Barnstable, Massachusetts. The village of Hyannis, the Wianno section of Osterville, and Iyanough Road (Route 132) are all named after him.
==Life==
Historic records mention the assistance and entertainment offered by him and his tribe towards the Pilgrims and later colonists. When the son of Mayflower passenger John Billington wandered away from the new settlement at Plymouth in January 1621, Iyannough assisted William Bradford and his party in finding the boy. The sachem impressed the Pilgrims as being personable, gentle, courteous, and fair-conditioned.
He died in 1623 when he was only in his mid-twenties. Following a surprise attack by the Pilgrims on the Massachusett tribe that winter, many Indians in the region including Iyannough grew fearful of the colonists and fled to hide in the area's swamps and remote islands.〔Philbrick (2006) pp 154〕 It is believed that Iyannough himself died of exposure during this time. Upon his early death his lands went to his eldest son Yanno 〔"Opinion: January 11, 2002 - The Barnstable Patriot" (page), ''BarnstablePatriot.com'', webpage: ()〕 (aka John Hyanno).
