Danny Hopkins Decades of tribal advocacy has led to a historic deal in the Hamptons. The town of Southampton will return some ancestral lands to the Shinnecock Indian Nation in eastern Long Island. The Hamptons were once entirely home to Indigenous people. Tela Troge is Shinnecock and an indigenous sovereignty attorney. Ancestrally, our territory spanned from what s now known as the town of Brookhaven to what s now known as the town of East Hampton, Troge said. Shinnecock people buried their ancestors in what is now the Shinnecock Hills neighborhood of the Hamptons. “This land is known as Sugar Loaf Hill. It’s extraordinarily sacred to us. It’s a parcel of land that was stolen from the Shinnecock Nation in 1859. This is the first time since 1859 that we have been successful in having the return of any of that land,” Troge said.

Town of Southampton A sacred tribal land in the Hamptons will be preserved under a new deal between the town of Southampton and the Shinnecock Indian Nation. Southampton Town Board members have approved an agreement to spend $5.3 million to preserve land in the Shinnecock Hills neighborhood of the Hamptons. The Shinnecock people have sought for decades to protect the area known as Sugar Loaf Hill to the tribe, an ancient burial ground for their people. The town will use money from its Community Preservation Fund, which is a 2% tax on real estate transactions in the five eastern most towns on Long Island. The money is set aside for historic preservation, water quality upgrades and preserving open space.
