Early History of Connecticut
On the territory of the modern state of Connecticut, by the time the first European colonists appeared, the Indians of the Algonquian people, the Mohegans, lived. At the beginning of the 17th century, the Pequot Indians broke away from the Mohegan and occupied a dominant position.
In 1611 – 1614, the coast of Connecticut (as well as New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island and Massachusetts) was studied by the Dutch navigator Adrian Block. He was also the first European to explore Long Island Bay and climb up the Connecticut River.
In 1623, the Dutch West India Company established a trading post in Connecticut, and ten years later, in 1633, strengthened it by building Fort Hope (“Fort of Hope”). In 1654, with the increasing influence of the English colonists in the region, the Dutch abandoned the fort.
The first English people arrived in Connecticut from the Massachusetts Bay Colony (Boston) and Plymouth Colony. In 1633, the first English trading post was built, and in 1635, the colony of Saybrook was founded at the mouth of the Connecticut River. In 1636, the Connecticut Colony (also known as the “River Colony”) was established on the site of present-day Hartford. In 1637, the New Haven Colony was founded on the coast.
Almost immediately, the English colonists began to have conflicts with the Pequot Indians, who traded with the Dutch. Armed clashes escalated into the “Pekote War” (1634 – 1638), which resulted in the victory of the Europeans and the almost complete destruction of the Pekot people.
In January 1639, the council of the Connecticut colony approved a document that went down in history as the “Basic Charter” and determined the structure and powers of the government of the colony, as well as the procedure for holding elections. The Basic Charter of Connecticut was the first such document in the American colonies and later became the prototype of the US Constitution. It was from the Basic Charter that Connecticut got its famous nickname, the “State of the Constitution.”
