No. Without Squanto, the Pilgrims would not know how to survive. Also Squanto showed them how to plant and how to fish.
Squanto learned English from English fishermen who had kidnapped him and taken him to Europe. He eventually made his way back to North America and served as an interpreter for Massasoit and the Pilgrims.
Chief Massasoit, the leader of the Wamponoag village, attended the first Thanksgiving.That Thanksgiving was also attended by Samoset, who was the sagamore (secondary chief) of the Abenaki tribe, and Squanto. Squanto, also known as Tisquantum, was a Patuxet Indian who had been adopted into Massasoit's tribe after his own had been wiped out. Squanto was not a chief. However, he did assist the Pilgrims even though at one point he had been captured by the British and held as a slave.

Tisquantum lived for some time with shipwright John Slany in London, England.
He taught them how to plant crops, I think.
There is no such thing as the Squanto tribe. Squanto was the name of the Native American who helped the pilgrim's.

the first Indian that came to the pilgrims and said "welcome englishmen" was named "Squanto"... hope that helps.
Squanto is a Indian who discovered the Pilgrim Settlement. He was one of the few who knew English because his friends would visit England, he taught the pilgrims how to grow crops and sold the corn crop. The corn was very important to the Americans survival.
