The first Native American tribe that the English Pilgrims encountered was the Wampanoag. In 1600, the Wampanoag lived in southeastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island. At that time, their population numbered about 12,000. Today their population is a little over 2,000.
There is not any official celebration dedicated to Augustus Caesar in today's world but I still celebrate his birthday, though.
That could be possible. But most people believe (and maybe it is) that the Pilgrims were headed for Virginia, but an awful storm was coming strong winds and all that. And let's face it, a storm at sea is never pleasant! The storm blew them off course and they landed in New England. There the met the Native American tribe which was called the Wampanoag tribe. They made a peace agreement, also. There were some fighting involved, but in the end, everyone becomes friends! And in the Wampanoag tribe, they met a "famous" native which is still well known today called Squanto. Squanto taught the Pilgrims lots of stuff, like how to plant crops, build houses, etc.. Surprisingly, (or not so) the Wampanoag and Pilgrims celebrated a holiday which we call Thanksgiving.
The Wampanoag are a Native American tribe originally from the northeastern United States, primarily located in present-day Massachusetts and Rhode Island. The name "Wampanoag" translates to "People of the First Light," referring to their location in the east where the sun rises. They are known for their role in early American history, particularly their interactions with English settlers, including the Pilgrims, in the early 17th century. Today, the Wampanoag continue to preserve their culture and heritage while engaging in various community and economic initiatives.
The first Thanksgiving in 1621 was not called that by the Pilgrims. They did not feel it was an event to be thankful for and called it a "Harvest Festival" in celebration of the colony's first successful harvest. For them it was strictly religious giving thanks to the Lord.
the pilgrims and the wampanoag celebrated because they were thankful for the food (corn and animals) that the harvested and hunted. we call this celebration today THANKSGIVING

In 1621, the Plymouth colonists and Wampanoag Indians shared an autumn harvest feast which is acknowledged today as one of the first Thanksgiving celebrations in the colonies
Squanto was a member of the Patuxet tribe, which was part of the larger Wampanoag confederation. He played a pivotal role in facilitating communication between the Native Americans and the Pilgrims during the early colonial period in America.

why do we celebrate bonfire night today
The seder has evolved over time. Plus, sacrifice cannot be offered without the Temple so no sacrifices are involved in the Passover celebration.
Halloween as most people know it today is not a celebration of the dead or Satan. It is simply a time for children to dress up in costumes and go trick or treating.
The first celebration was in 1810 to celebrate the wedding of Crown Prince Ludwig and Princess Therese. Traditionally it ran for 16 days. Today it has been modified to make sure it includes October 3rd, which is now German Reunification Day celebration.
yes, according to the pilgrims there is one pilgrim still alive in this world =]
