Pawnees
Indian slaves arrived from the western tribes, were captured and sold into slavery by other Indians. These people were called panis, a Pawnee word, as the Pawnee Indians were the frequent source of slaves.
There is some question with regard to the origin of the name "Pawnee." The word Pani, which has become synonymous with Pawnee means slave. As it was from this tribe that the Algonquian tribes about the great lakes obtained their slaves, some writers maintain that the word Pawnee is equivalent to the word slave, and that the tribal name resulted from the fact that so many members of it were subjected to a state of bondage. Hamilton says: "As most of the Indian slaves belonged to the nation of Panis (English Pawnees), the name Pani was given in the 18th century to every Indian reduced to servitude."
