There were many official days of Thanksgiving in colonial America. The feast that occurred near Plymouth Rock in 1621 was not considered by the Puritans as a "thanksgiving" but rather as a prayer.

The first Thanksgiving is the subject of many myths and untruths. Today, historians believe the first Thanksgiving many people speak of was actually a combination of two different events that took place in 1621 and 123.
