Samoset was a Native American leader of the Abenaki tribe, known for his role in early interactions between Indigenous peoples and English settlers in North America. He is most famously recognized for his visit to the Pilgrims at Plymouth Colony in 1621, where he greeted them in English, having learned the language from earlier encounters with European fishermen. Samoset's initial contact helped establish communication between the settlers and local tribes, paving the way for subsequent alliances, including with Squanto and the Wampanoag leader Massasoit. His actions were significant in the early years of the Plymouth Colony.
