it depends on what tribe of indians they were around. some of the pilgrims got along very well with the indians that they lived near, forging alliances and such. where as other pilgrims killed off the indians in the areas that they chose to settle in. those that weren't killed were forced to move to another region.

They thought they were savages. Took no time to understand their ways. Brought them back to England, Holland and France as freak shows or slaves. Rent Pocahontas 1 and/or 2.

God would never destroy a group of people...(not including that whole lucust storm in Eygpt). . The Pilgrams killed all of the Indians and that was the work of the Devil.. . Killing/Murder is never God's work.
