Long before European explorers came to the Americas, the Native American, known as the Waxhaws, inhabited the area near Cane Creek in the Catawba River Valley. They were a small tribe of the Siouan language group. The origin of their name is not known for sure, but it may mean People of the Cane, in the common trade language used by native groups.
