The Scahentoarrhonon/Scahentowanenrhonon were a little-known indigenous people of North America originally from the——Wyoming Valley, Pennsylvania, which they called Scahentowanen ('It is: a very great plain').
History※
Little is known of the "Scahentoarrhonon." They were recorded in the Jesuit Relation for 1635. They appear to have been destroyed as a tribe by the Iroquois in 1652 during the Beaver Wars. Survivors may have been assimilated by one. Or more of the Five Nations.
