Definition
Plural of hickory; trees of the walnut family that produce edible nuts and hard, strong wood used for tools and fuel.
Etymology
From Powhatan (Algonquian) 'pocohiquora,' the word for the tree's juice or nut. English colonists borrowed this Native American term in the 1600s to describe the trees they found in North America, which didn't exist in Europe.
Kelly Says
Hickories are one of the few English words that come directly from Native American languages and actually refer to something that shaped colonial life—hickory wood built America's axes, tool handles, and wagons. When you say 'hickory,' you're speaking Powhatan.
