John Rodgers Jewitt (21 May 1783 – 7 January 1821) was an English armourer who entered the historical record with his memoirs about the 28 months he spent as a captive of Maquinna of the Nuu-chah-nulth (Nootka) people on what is now the British Columbia Coast. The Canadian Encyclopedia describes Jewitt as a shrewd observer and his Narrative as a "classic of captivity literature".

  • John Rodgers Jewitt (* 21. Mai 1783 in Boston, England; † 7. Januar 1821 in Hartford, Connecticut) war Waffenschmied und Schriftsteller, Seefahrer, Schauspieler und Sänger. Die Beschreibung seiner zweijährigen Gefangenschaft bei Indianern der kanadischen Pazifikküste ist eine der wichtigsten Quellen zur Geschichte der dort lebenden Nuu-chah-nulth, die Jewitt als „Nootkas“ bezeichnete. Zugleich formten sie das Bild von den „Wilden“. (de)
