VA Studies - Native Americans 

European colonists arriving in Virginia may have been greeted with, "Wingapo" (Welcome, my beloved friend). Indians have lived in what is now called Virginia for thousands of years. While we are still learning about the people who inhabited this land, it is clear that Virginia history did not begin in 1607. If you ask any Virginia Indian, "When did you come to this land?", he or she will tell you, "We have always been here."
