New Plymouth Colony.

Hide Profile

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.
