The Shawnee Sun (Shawnee: Siwinowe Kesibwi) was a newspaper published in the Shawnee language in Kansas from 1835 to 1844. The paper was founded by Baptist missionary Jotham Meeker, who created his own script for Shawnee, an Algonquian language. It was a missionary newspaper and attempted to convert the Shawnee to Christianity. It was the first newspaper published entirely in a Native American language.
