Native Peoples who attended the 1621 event:
The only name we have is Massasoit. However, it is almost certain that
Squanto,
the Pilgrims translator, was present as well. Among other probable
attendees are
Hobbamock, Quadequina (Massasoits brother), and Tokamahamon (mentioned
in Mourts Relation in June 1621, as a "special friend"). We do not
know whether
Samoset was still in the Plymouth area or had already returned to Maine.
