back | 5 of 6 | next

English narratives state that Pocahontas and other Indian women spent a fair amount of time at Jamestown, and archeological evidence seems to support this. Many fragments of early 17th-century Indian pottery (including the pieces reassembled here) have been recovered from Jamestown and indicate that Indian women might have cooked or even lived there.
