Engraving depicts Native American Samoset (1590 - 1653), from the Wompanoag tribe, as he visits the Pilgrims in Plymouth Colony, Massachusetts, March 1621. Samoset, the first native to meet the colonists, was able to speak some English and famously introduced them to Squanto, who knew more English and was able to provide much needed assistance to them.
