Sassacus (Massachusett:
Sassakusu, "fierce") (c.– June 1637) was a Pequot sachem who was born near present-day Groton, Connecticut. He became grand sachem after his father, Tatobem, was killed in 1632. The Mohegans led by sachem Uncas rebelled against domination by the Pequots.
Sassacus and the Pequots were defeated by English colonists allied with the Narragansett and Mohegans in the Pequot War.
