The armed conflict which pitted Native Americans against New Englanders in 1675 was led by?

At the center of this cataclysm was one man, Metacom, leader of the Pokanokets, a tribe within the Wampanoag Indian Federation. At an early age, when relations between the natives and settlers were less stressed, Metacom was given the nickname of King Philip by the English, because of his haughty mannerisms. One of the many ironies of this conflict is that Philip was the son of Massasoit -- the same Massasoit who had helped the Plymouth Pilgrims survive their first winter in the New World. A father's kindness would became a son's curse.

Which colonists landed during the winter and could not grow crops?

The colonists who landed during the winter and struggled to grow crops were the Pilgrims, who arrived in Plymouth, Massachusetts, in December 1620. The harsh winter conditions severely impacted their ability to cultivate food, leading to food shortages and high mortality rates. Many of the settlers did not survive the first winter, but those who did were eventually aided by local Native American tribes, which helped them learn to grow crops suitable for the region.
