Satartia is a village in Yazoo County, Mississippi. Per the 2020 Census, the population was 41, [4] Mississippi's smallest incorporated municipality by population. [5]
Located on the east bank of the Yazoo River, Satartia was once a thriving river port, and is one of the oldest non-Native settlements in Yazoo County. [6]
Satartia is a Choctaw word meaning "pumpkin place", [7] likely due to the small gourds that grow in the area. In the early 1800s, Satartia was a busy shipping point from which cotton was transported by steamboat to New Orleans along the Yazoo River. [6]
During the Civil War, General Grant sailed a gunboat from Vicksburg and captured the village; the Wilson House on Plum Street was used as his headquarters during the occupation. [6] The war also produced the "Satartia Rifles", of the 12th Mississippi Infantry Regiment, a well-regarded Confederate company and recruitment group. [8]
In February 2020, a pressurized pipeline owned by Denbury Resources carrying liquid carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide ruptured "less than half a mile" from Satartia. [9] First responders evacuated Satartia's 42 residents, and approximately 250 others living near Satartia. [9] In 2022, the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration recommended a civil penalty of $3,866,734 against Denbury Resources. [10]
According to the United States Census Bureau, the village has a total area of 0.2 square miles (0.52 km2), all land.
