  • Squanto acted as a translator and interpreter for the Plymouth Colony and their dealings with Chief Massasoit.
  • Squanto taught the pilgrims how to plant maize (also known as corn). Maize was a new crop for the pilgrims. It was not known in England before the discovery of the Americas.
  • Squanto taught them how to hunt and trap the unusual animals in America and how to catch the fish in the nearby streams.
  • Squanto also helped people build houses and brought them food when needed.
  • Squanto also taught them how to make popcorn!
  • Squanto taught the women how to cook the corn
  • Squanto helped them make peace with the Wampanoag

Squanto also helped them survive from 1620 to 1621 when he died from a fever.
