What language did the native speak at Jamestown?

The native people who lived in the area of Jamestown, Virginia, spoke Powhatan.

This was the language of the Powhatan Confederacy, a group of Algonquian-speaking tribes that dominated the region. While there were variations in dialects across the confederacy, Powhatan was the primary language used for communication between the tribes.

It's important to note that the Powhatan language is considered extinct today.
