The Wenrohronon or Wenro people were an Indigenous peoples of the Northeastern Woodlands, historically from western New York and possibly northern Pennsylvania.
They were defeated by the Haudenosaunee Confederacy in two decisive wars between 1638–1639 and 1643. This was likely part of the Iroquois Confederacy campaign against the Neutral people, another Iroquoian-speaking tribe, which lived across the Niagara River. This warfare was part of what was known as the Beaver Wars, as the Iroquois worked to dominate the lucrative fur trade. They used winter attacks, which were not usual among Native Americans, and their campaigns resulted in attrition of both the larger Iroquoian confederacies, as they had against the numerous Wendat.
