Pilgrims celebrated thanksgiving because they wanted to celebrate the accomplishment of their colony and how they survived throughout the harsh year with the help of the Indians.
Invited to thanksgiving? Do you think anything from the first Thanksgiving was actually provided by Pilgrims? There was a feast because the Wampanoag brought deer & corn & pumpkin to the starving Pilgrims - in our way we help those not so fortunate. Please, check your history. The Wampanoag fed those terrorists who turned on them as soon as they could feed themselves, infected them with smallpox and other viruses and sold them into slavery because they had superior weapons. Give me a break. We saved your butts and you turned on us like a wounded badger. And there weren't any turkey's served - Wampanoag didn't eat turkey.
The Indians who helped the pilgrims were Wampanoag.
Squanto, a Native American, played a crucial role in helping the Pilgrims survive in the New World by teaching them how to farm, hunt, and fish. His assistance in building relationships with the local Wampanoag tribe also led to the first Thanksgiving feast in 1621.
Cuz they were nice people!
The Wampanoag tribe played a crucial role in assisting the Pilgrims during their early settlement in Plymouth. They taught the Pilgrims essential agricultural techniques, such as planting corn, beans, and squash, which were vital for their survival. Additionally, the Wampanoag provided guidance on local resources and hunting, contributing to the Pilgrims' ability to adapt and thrive in their new environment. This cooperation culminated in the First Thanksgiving in 1621, celebrating the successful harvest and their alliance.
The pilgrims of the Plymouth Colony established the first Thanksgiving after their first harvest. They invited the Indians because they were thankful for their help.

The Wampanoag Tribe is the tribe of Chief Massasoit, Samoset, and Squanto. They made contact with the Pilgrims and aided them. Without the help of the Wampanoag tribe it is possible that the colonists of Plymouth Colony would not have survived the first winter.
