New Plymouth Colony.
Biographical notes:
The Wampanoag Tribe's traditional lands are located in eastern Rhode Island and Massachusetts. The Puritans established portions of the Plymouth Colony on these lands. Massasoit was the Sachem of Pokanoket, a group of Wampanoag villages around Narragansett Bay. He was also known as Ousamequin, Woosamequin, and Wasamequen. Wamsutta, a signator of this deed, was the eldest son of Massasoit. Massasoit met with the colonists soon after their arrival and negotiated treaties in 1621.
