Historically, they were part of the Illinois Confederation. Traditionally, the Peoria People spoke a dialect of the Miami-Illinois language. The name “Peoria” derives from their autonym or, name for themselves in the Illinois language: “Peewaareewa” (pronounced: “peewaalia”). Originally, it meant: “Comes, carrying a pack on his back.“
The Peoria Tribe of Indians of Oklahoma is a Confederation of Kaskaskia, Peoria, Piankeshaw and Wea Indians, united into a single tribe, in 1854. The tribes, which constitute The Confederated Peorias, as they then were called, originated in the lands bordering the Great Lakes and drained, by the mighty Mississippi River.
