In 1609 and 1610, the Powhatan Confederacy, led by Chief Powhatan, refused to trade with Jamestown. This refusal was largely due to rising tensions and conflicts between the indigenous peoples and the English settlers, exacerbated by the settlers' encroachment on native lands and resources. The lack of trade contributed to a severe food shortage in Jamestown, leading to a period known as the "Starving Time."
