Have just been reading about Samoset and Squanto.
Apparently, 16th March 1621, Samoset walks up to the pilgrims and in English asks for some beer!
There’s different accounts, but apparently they eventually sorted Samoset out and a couple of days later he returned with Squanto.
It ends up the Squanto teaches the Pilgrims how to live from the land properly and things took off from there.
So as I said, it was the beer!!!
