The History of the first Thanksgiving
In March 1621, the Pilgrims made contact with the Wampanoag people, an Indigenous tribe led by Chief Massasoit. This interaction marked the beginning of a crucial alliance. Samoset, a Wampanoag man, introduced the Pilgrims to Squanto, a member of the Patuxet tribe who had a remarkable story of survival. Years earlier, Squanto had been kidnapped by English explorers, taken to Europe, and eventually returned to his homeland, where he learned English. Using his knowledge, Squanto served as a translator and guide for the Pilgrims, teaching them how to cultivate corn, fish in local rivers, and harvest the land’s resources.
By the fall of 1621, the Pilgrims had successfully gathered a bountiful harvest, a significant achievement for their struggling community. To celebrate, they organized a three-day feast to give thanks for their survival and their newfound prosperity. Approximately fifty Pilgrims and ninety Wampanoag people attended this event, which is now considered the first Thanksgiving. The feast likely included venison provided by the Wampanoag, along with wild fowl, corn, shellfish, and native fruits such as berries. It was a moment of gratitude and mutual respect between the two groups.
