The story we know is not true. Actually the colonist landed in an area of 14,000 Native Americans and in the worse land in the area. Powhatan pretty much left them alone. I think he figured that they would die from the bad water and disease . He was fairly right. Within 6 months there were only 34 men left alive of the 104 who came. It wasn't until after his death that the brother of Powhatan attacked the colony. The story about Smith is also not true. He did NOT save Jamestown. He was only there a very few months and he lied about his contribution to the settlement in a book he wrote several years later. He also made up the story about Pocahontas and she died young so couldn't refute his story. The man who did save Jamestown was the husband of Pocahontas and gave tobacco seeds to the colony. That was John Rolfe.

Who was the powerful Indian chief's daughter who became well known in history?
Pocahontas (1595?- 1617) was born in the Tidewater region of Virginia around 1595. Her name was Matoaka. The great chief, Wahunsunacawh, led the Powhatan tribe. The tribe was supposedly within 12 miles of Jamestown, and Pocahontas traveled to the fort. The story of Pocahontas is full of tall tales and even historians cannot precisely say what is true.

Why did Jamestown colony start?
The founders of Jamestown wanted money. SO England gave them 4 ships, The nina, the pinta, and the santa maria.

But, thanks to a very strong leader (captain john smith) helped them survive! So basically they wanted money$$$ silver and gold :)
