EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking image captures the moment of first contact between the Wampanoag tribe, led by their Sagamore or lesser chief Samoset, and the Pilgrim colonists in Plymouth, Massachusetts, on March 16, 1621. Samoset, an Abenaki from Maine, had learned English from fishermen and sailors off the coast, making him an invaluable intermediary between the two cultures. Dressed in a simple loincloth, Samoset approaches a group of Pilgrims, who are dressed in their traditional attire and gaze at him with a mixture of curiosity and apprehension. The Pilgrims, who had endured a harsh winter and were struggling to establish a settlement, would come to rely on Samoset's language skills and knowledge of the local terrain to build alliances and survive in the New World. This historic encounter marked the beginning of a relationship that would prove vital to the survival of the Pilgrim colony and the development of the early American society.
