She didn't . The story is not true. 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.
Powhatan.
Pocahontas played a crucial role in aiding the Jamestown settlers in the early 1600s by establishing a relationship of trade and diplomacy between her father, Chief Powhatan, and the English colonists. She helped to supply the settlers with food during times of scarcity, which was vital for their survival. Additionally, her actions fostered a degree of peace between the Powhatan Confederacy and the settlers, allowing for a more stable environment for the fledgling colony. Pocahontas's eventual marriage to John Rolfe further strengthened ties between the two groups.
She helped Jamestown when they were in drought and hunger. By bringing food to Jamestown whenever they could
because during the starving time, the settlers of Jamestown took their food for the winter to themselves.
Pocahontas was able to keep peace between her tribe and the English for a couple based on respect and admiration. Her people loved her and she was friendly with the English. She even negotiated the release of Powhatan prisoners held by the colonists.
