Tisquantum Tisquantum, better known as Squanto, was a Native American from the Patuxet tribe who lived in the area that became known as Plymouth. He is a well-known person in the history of the Pilgrims. However, Tisquantum's story does not begin with the Pilgrims. In 1614, a man named Thomas Hunt was on a trade expedition to North America with Captain John Smith. Hunt captured a group of Nauset and Patuxet Native Americans, including Tisquantum. He locked the natives below deck and sailed them to Spain. Hunt sold several of the natives into slavery before Spanish friars took the rest of them into custody. The friars instructed the natives in the Christian faith. Meanwhile, the Nauset and Patuxet tribes were furious about the kidnappings. They became very hostile to visitors. The Nauset and Patuxet stopped trading with the English and the French. In 1617, a group of Nauset natives attacked a French ship and burned it. From 1618 to 1619, the natives' hostility toward Europeans took a backseat to the outbreak of disease. Some historical documents describe the disease known as smallpox. Others describe the disease known as tuberculosis. It is possible that both smallpox and tuberculosis were responsible for the deaths of all the Patuxet in the area and for the deaths of many other natives in the surrounding region. Tisquantum made his passage to England where he learned to speak English. John Slaney, an Englishman, employed Tisquantum and sent him on a journey to Newfoundland where he met Thomas Dermer. Dermer realized that Tisquantum was a valuable resource because he could serve as an interpreter for the English and the natives. Tisquantum returned to England with Dermer a year later. In 1619, Tisquantum returned to his homeland with Dermer. Tisquantum discovered that his village had been abandoned. He went to search for survivors and found Massasoit and Quadequina, the heads of the Wampanoag Confederation. They told him that his village had been wiped out by disease. In 1620, the Pilgrims settled in the area where Tisquantum's Patuxet village had been. Tisquantum befriended the Pilgrims and helped them survive in the new land. Passage 2 The Adventures of Tisquantum by Memory Stay In 1614, I was captured by a greedy white man and taken to Spain. Then, I was rescued by a Spanish friar. After that, I sailed to England where John Slaney, a wealthy Englishman, employed me and taught me to speak English. Slaney sent me on a voyage to Newfoundland where I met Thomas Dermer. Dermer and I became good friends. He asked me to speak to the natives for him and tell him what they said in return. It was good. I helped make peace between the white men and the native people. Dermer took me back to England but promised to return me to my homeland. He made good on his promise. In 1619, I was back in my village. But my Patuxet tribe was gone. The huts were falling to the ground. My heart tore in half because of the disappointment. I searched for my people for days on end. Finally, I found Massasoit, the chief of the Wampanoag Confederation. He told me that every last member of my tribe was dead except for me. Disease had spread and killed everyone. I wept bitterly as the halves of my heart shattered into many, many pieces.
