That's ignorant too. The Pilgrims settled where they did because a year or two before an epidemic had completely wiped out the tribe that had lived there...except for this guy named Squanto. The land was empty and uninhabited.

I think you better reread about ol' Squanto.

I think you better reread about ol' Squanto.

Other than leaving out that he survived because he was elsewhere for several years, what are you disputing? After he'd been kidnapped, an epidemic wiped out his village (Patuxet?), and the few remaining moved out to meld in with other tribes, abandoning the village and immediate area. After being redeemed by priests, he eventually ended up back in the area of his village, and when the Pilgrims arrived he acted as a liaison.
