Sonnontio, or Sonhioto, usually called Lower Shawnee Town by the English traders, was located at the mouth of the Scioto River. The town was built about 1738 and was part of a large network of [[Shawnee]] villages in the Ohio valley. In 1750, the population may have been as high as 1500 people, with 100 houses north of the [[Ohio River]] and another 40 on the Kentucky side.

It was the town where [[Mary Draper Ingles|Mary Ingles]] and her fellow captives were first taken following the [[Draper's Meadows Massacre]] in 1755.
