Piqua's history dates back to a previous settlement in 1747 called Fort Pickawillany located a mile northeast of the present city at the Great Miami River's intersection with Loramie Creek. Piqua started out as two separate communities, Upper Piqua and Lower Piqua in 1780 becoming one community by 1800.
Piqua is believed to be a reference to a Shawnee Indian phrase which means: "He has risen from the ashes!" The phrase is mentioned in a painting of a Native American rising up above the flames before a tribe of onlookers in a state of amazement. The painting is on public display inside the main office of Unity National Bank, the former Third Savings and Loan Association in downtown Piqua.
