Did Native Americans attack Pilgrims at Plymouth Rock?
No. After the Mayflower arrived at Cape Cod in November, 1620, the colonists set out in a small boat to explore the coastline. In December, they decided upon the site of an abandoned native village called Patuxet, at what is now called Plymouth, Massachusetts. In March of 1621, the Pilgrims met with Ousamequin, the Massasoit (great sachem) of the Wampanoag Confederacy, and, with the aid of Squanto as interpreter, made a peace agreement which lasted for nearly forty years. Relations between the colonists and the natives, which had been tense, deteriorated rapidly after Massasoit's death, culminating in open warfare, starting in 1675 (King Philip's War).
Who was Massasoit?
American Indian chief. He was the grand sachem (intertribal chief) of the Wampanoag Indians, who inhabited parts of Massachusetts and Rhode Island. In March 1621, several months after the Mayflower landed, he journeyed to Plymouth and established peaceful relations with the settlers, with whom he shared techniques of planting, fishing, and cooking. In 1623 he was nursed back to health from a serious illness by grateful Pilgrims. After his death, good will gradually dissolved, leading to the bloody King Philip's War (1675), which was led by his son Metacom.
