The Mashantucket Pequot Bingo Hall opened on July 5, 1986. Tribal members who were not living on the reservation began moving back to reclaim the land, and the tribe was granted federal recognition in 1983. In 1973, the only Pequot member still living in the area died. In the early 1600s the tribe had approximately 8,000 members, but the Pequot War from 1636 to 1638 nearly wiped out the entire tribe. The tribe behind Foxwoods is the Mashantucket Pequots. It could be described as a small city under a single roof.
