Incorporated in 1870. Aquinnah is the center of the Wampanoag Tribe of Gay Head Aquinnah. A Federally recognized Native American People. It is located at the tip of Martha's Vinyard.
The Wampanoag Tribe of Gay Head Aquinnah became a federally acknowledged tribe on April 10, 1987 through the Bureau of Indian Affairs. The Tribe is preserving its history, culture and language. The town was called Gay Head until 1997 when the Tribe won the right to change the name of the town back to the original Wampanoag name.
The smallest town on the Island at 5.4 miles of land area. The drive to Aquinnah is beautiful. You will notice that the three down-Island towns, Vineyard Haven, Oak Bluffs and Edgartown, are much more densely populated. Most of the population on the Island lives down-Island, where you can build on a quarter-acre lot, up-Island, you need at least three acres in order to build.
You drive through two of the three up-Island towns, West Tisbury and Chilmark to get to Aquinnah. The topography is a narrow, winding hilly road, that meanders through the small towns. Some of the foliage that grows wild along the sides of the road, are grape vines. Usually, they do not produce grapes, but if the soil was tended to, who knows. You can tell the grape leaves because the bottom of the leaves are yellow and the top is green. The leaves are relatively large. There are large patches on either side of the road, especially the stretch of the road between Chilmark and Aquinnah.
