Monacan may refer to:
Natural bridge or Natural Bridge can refer to several things:
The Monacan tribe is one of several Native American tribes recognized by the Commonwealth of Virginia in the United States. The Monacan Tribe has not been recognized as an Indian tribe by the federal government. They are located primarily in Amherst County, Virginia near Lynchburg, Virginia. As of 2009 there are approximately 2,000 members of the tribe. There are satellite groups in West Virginia, Maryland, Tennessee and Ohio.
The contemporary Monacan people claim to be descendants of an Eastern Siouan tribe of American Indians by the same name. The historic Monacan tribe, first recorded in 1607 in Virginia, was related to the Siouan Tutelo, Saponi and Occaneechi.
There is no conclusive evidence linking members of the contemporary tribe with the historic tribe.

Before colonists arrived, the Mona cans roamed the areas of Virginia, West Virginia, and the Carolinas. Their original territory comprised almost half of Virginia. One of the oldest groups of indigenous people in Virginia, Monacans were agricultural people who were proficient at farming, hunting, fishing, mining and trading copper, basket-making, pottery, among other traditions. According to Mr. Ferguson, no one else is interpreting the history of the Southwestern Piedmont Indians. Monacan history, dating back 10,000 years, is an important part of Virginia's history, wrote Jeffrey Hantman, a Professor of Anthropology and Archaeology at the University of Virginia, in 1992.

Amherst Co., VA - November is Native American Heritage Month. And the Monacan Indians are sharing their culture with the public.
I remember when you used to be mine
Way back when
I was too naive to love you right
But now if I only had the opportunity
I would do anything
Because my heart still believes
Maybe you could be mine again
Maybe we could make that dream for real
Like way back then
When love was yours and mine
Maybe we could bring it back to life
It's irrelevant to dwell on the past
I'm accountable for what went bad
And I mean that
But I keep on praying for another chance
Just to have you back
Cause I've grown
And I know how to be your everything
Maybe you could be mine again
Maybe we could make that dream for real
Like way back then
When love was yours and mine
Maybe we could bring it back to life
No, no it ain't over yet
I just can't accept the possibility
We weren't made for each other's arms
I know you're my destiny
We can't erase what was meant to be
Part of you and part of me
If we try one more time
Maybe somehow we'll survive
Maybe you could be mine again
Maybe we could make that dream for real
Like way back then
When love was yours and mine
Boy maybe we could bring it back
Maybe we could bring it back
Maybe we could bring it back to...
Life
