The Area
The Northampton of today-where artists and writers, merchants and farmers, scholars and professionals live in unique cooperation-began as a Puritan settlement purchased from the Nonotuck Indians in 1654. For the price of 100 fathom of wampum, ten coats and a few trinkets, the Puritan's acquired the area's rich farm land.
