No, Pocahontas (c. 1595 - March 21, 1617), later known as Rebecca Rolfe, was a Virginia Indian chief's daughter notable for having assisted colonial settlers. She bace famous in the last year of her life on a visit to England where she died. There is a life-size bronze statue of her at St. George's Church, Gravesend, England where she is burried.
how would the world be different with out pocahontas
After Pocahontas saved John, they became friends. I don't think that they were lovers. Pocahontas may have had a little crush because she was 12 and he was an adult.
Meeks is called Meeko. Meeko and Percy are from Pocahontas and Pocahontas two. Meeko is the raccoon that hangs about with Pocahontas and Percy is Ratcliffes dog.
Pocahontas's role model was her father Powhatan to become a great leader.
i think perhaps the movie Pocahantis, if i remember correctly her love interest was dying in the end.....
pocahontas
Pocahontas is a hero. -homar Simpson
legend:)
As far as I know Pocahontas was actually named Matoaka she was nicknamed pocahontas. She had saved the life of John Smith when she kept her father from clubbing him to death when she was about 10 or 11 years old.
They should be mighty and powerful in battle. They should win, and be courageous.
It is a tall tale like Pecos Bill or Paul Bunyan.
Folktale is a noun.
is that folktale to town
No a Cautionary tale is not a folktale
One example of an American hero folktale full of exaggerations is the tall tale of Paul Bunyan. In this story, Paul is depicted as a giant lumberjack with superhuman strength and abilities, who shaped the landscape of the United States with his colossal feats. These exaggerations serve to entertain and amuse listeners, while also conveying a sense of American frontier spirit and resilience.
She isn't a hero and the story we think we know is not true. Smith 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.
Yes, "folktale" is a compound word made up of "folk" and "tale." It refers to a story or legend that has been passed down through generations within a particular culture.
