Penobscot Indian Island Reservation
Penobscot Indian Island Reservation, Native American reservation along Penobscot River, Maine.
The Penobscot Indian Island Reservation covers 57 square kilometers, with 19.5 square kilometers of land and 37.4 square kilometers of water territory.
The establishment of the reservation followed treaties in 1775 when the Penobscot people relinquished ancestral lands, retaining Indian Island as their principal settlement.
The reservation maintains a museum that documents Penobscot traditions, language, and the community's connection to the Penobscot River through generations.
A modern bridge, constructed in 1986, connects Indian Island to Old Town, providing essential access for the 758 residents recorded in the 2020 census.
The reservation extends through 15 towns and includes a separate section in South Aroostook County that functions as a dedicated game preserve.
