Wimbee

Wimbee Creek winds through the tidal lowlands of the Carolina coast. The Wimbee, also called Wimbehee, were among the Indigenous peoples of this region, where wooded ground and marshes lay close to the sea. They hunted and fished around the creek and planted crops including corn, beans and squash. The Wimbee were part of the wider Cusabo world encountered by English colonists as settlement spread south from Charleston.
