The native chiefs saying "They have knowledge from their ancestors that they would be subdued by white men"- I'm surprised that when the narrator mentioned this that it was not covered that they could have gotten that idea from seeing whites from previous explorative expeditions, possibly before Narvaez. My guess is it was that some of the tribes had seen white people from the Narvaez expedition or earlier European expeditions and shared the info widely with surrounding tribes. Interesting side note: Fascinating how the Spaniards got their names. "Cabeza de Vaca" (translated as "head of Cow") 🐮 was named from his mother's side regarding an ancestral sheep herder relative who had marked a successful pass location for Spanish soldiers to travel through during a battle between the Spaniards and the Moors by using a cow skull.

I like the series put out by the source but I wish they would use more maps and show us the locations as they go along on the expeditions.

Why would anybody be named Cabeza de Vaca? (Head of Cow)? Did he get that nickname from being the first European to encounter bison 🦬? Perhaps Coronado saw bison first. Boca Raton in Florida is Mouse Mouth in Spanish.

Thank you for the info! It was very well delivered. I just found out he is my 15th great grandfather!

Regarding the woman chief. She most likely was a chieftain of one of the tribes in the Creek confederation. There were a few different tribes within the Confederacy.

I don't know where you got your information, but it is VERY INCORRECT! Here is where there is some valid information about these "Negros" who were traded for victuals/food supplies at Jamestown. The DUTCH did NOT bring these blacks to Jamestown to "sell". They were captured FROM a Dutch slave ship bound for the Caribbean where they were to be sold as slaves. The White Lion was the ship that captured the Dutch ship which happened to include around 20 black slaves. Needing food and water [and not more mouths to feed] the White Lion went to Jamestown to trade these blacks for food and water supplies. www.nps.gov/jame/learn/historyculture/african-americans-at-jamestown.htm . My ancestor Thomas Ottawell [aka: Ottowell; Ottewell; Attawell, in different lists] was an Indentured Servant to Edward Blaney and in 1620 Thomas came to Jamestown as Blaney's indentured servant on the Bona Nova ship. There were thousands of [mostly men] women and even orphaned children brought to Jamestown as indentured servants. See the list Muster of survivors of the 1622 Indian Massacre. MOST of the names (which includes negros) were indentured servants. www.jamestowne.org/1623-lists-of-living--dead.html . Thomas Ottawell in under the heading of "At the Plantation Over Against James Cittie" This land was owned by Edward Blaney. Only Indentured Servants lived on it. Blaney lived in Jamestown proper. Do more research on your facts. You don't have them correct.

Remember when Governor Berkeley wrote the King/Crown a letter stating that the “young” nathaniel Bacon was causing problems. That was too differentiate him from his older cousin (some sources say uncle) who had to same name and had already established himself in the colony. His wife was disinherited for her marriage to Bacon, which lead to get involved in a fraudulent scheme to sell a parcel of land, which resulted in a lawsuit that persisted for several years after his death. This is what made him leave England in an attempt to separate himself from his victims. He could have chosen just about anywhere but picked Virginia because his cousin “Nathaniel Bacon” was already established there. Plus him and his wife were related to governor Berkeley and other high ranking members of Virginia

“The Jesuit Relations” about the missionaries in Quebec in the 17th century is another great book. Keep up the great videos.

Would you say that the Puritans via the Hampton Conference were the force behind the KJV?

Would you say that the body of liberties was a quasi extension of the Magna?

John Haynes was my great something grandpa

I know this is almost 3 years old now, But i need to thank you as this is the roots of my family here in the US This obscure video has helped me piece together some of the historical context of my roots Question though: Do you potentially have any information of his son Thomas Harvey who would become the deputy Governor in NC?

Some of them wear garlands of birds’ feathers. They are dark in color, not unlike the 👉🏾Ethiopians👈🏾, with thick black hair, not very long, tied back behind the head like a small tail. As for the physique of these men, they are well proportioned, of medium height, a little taller than we are

Among them were two kings, who were as beautiful of stature and build as I can possibly describe. The first was about 40 years old, the other a young man of 24, and they were dressed thus: the older man had on his naked body a stag skin, skillfully worked like damask with various embroideries; the head was bare, the hair tied back with various bands, and around the neck hung a wide chain decorated with many different-colored stones. The young man was dressed in almost the same way

I would have left with the women too. Life is hard enough. No pun intended.

John Endecott is my 11th great grandfather…

you are missing stuff here

wait a minute last episode they just got to the settlement and it was destroyed and now we skip to him in spain recalled for mismanagement? I think you missed a large chuck of the story here

We have a few lines of French Huguenot ancestry. My 11th ggf was Sir Robert Brassieur/Brashear II (b.1590 - 1665) of Carpentras, Vaucluse, Province - Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France (French Huguenot). That family line came to the Colony of Virginia no later than 1637 I read in documents. Other family members came and settled further South into the Carolinas. There also seem to be some French-Dutch lines with them from the Netherlands. I've traced some of the French-Dutch back to Canada marrying into Indian families/tribes.

That’s really rich of Governor Berkeley, he had zero qualms to RAISE an army to confront Nathaniel Bacon but refused in an act of cowardliness to raise an army against those Indians who killed fellow settlers in cold blood. 🤦🏼‍♂️

I think it’s SUPER important to mention afew key points about the English. The English had previously scouted the Kennebec River the two years prior. Also on these voyages the English had kidnapped 5 natives. They lived in England with Popham. One died shortly after capture but three were brought back one year later. The last one left was kept till the 1607 Popham colony trip named like “skidawario” or something similar In fact one of the Indians dropped off the year before was chief again and went to meet the Popham colonist many times ready for war. The Indian chief wound up scamming the British on at least three occasions for food and goods in promise of meeting the “big chief”, “the big waters that lead to China” and was “some English goods”. The English received nothing in return on these three occasions. This is why all but 45 members went back to England because they didn’t have enough food for the entire colony after afew of the Indian scams.

@HistoricalContextUSA Love the series, have a question, you may have explained and I missed it - why did Vaca go the much longer way down the west coast of Mexico, instead of the much shorter route to Mexico City down from the east? Did he just overshoot the left turn?

My people were those settlers.

Your spanish pronunciations are awful. Good videos otherwise

Please start exploring the English colonies during the Victorian era and the start of the mainland North America colonies

This is crazy! Nathaniel Bacon is my 8th great uncle.

Thanks for these excellent episodes. May I just note that Lord Berkeley’s surname is pronounced ‘ Bark Lee.

fantastic story telling... thank you sir.

Shakespeare died two months before her arrival

I think the initial colonist's were too small in population to be able to make war on the Natives at this point.

Sounds like Chief Tuscaloosa

Was wondering if Columbus even thought to bring a Chinese or Indian from India with him since he was planning to go to the New World on his first voyage. Would be nice to have a translator already if he was planning on going to that part of the world

You mentioned the bread made by Indians/Spanish in Cuba. Bland and from roots. There are two plants that were used for food and bread by natives in the Caribbean and Florida. Yuca or cassava, and Coontie . Both have roots that are edible and were used as a staple. I've had Yuca and it qualifies as bland, odd since most Cuban food is anything but bland.

Thanks for the video, however I'd like to correct or add a few comments. I'm a Florida Native, studied that history in school, and live on the west coast now. The "panhandle" of Florida is the north west extreme of Florida and not the keys area. The Indians De Leon encountered in the Charlotte harbor area were the Calusa. ..very war like and capable. There's an excellent display of their culture in Gainesville (U of F natural history museum, if you're in the area. According to several conversations I had with archeologists at the Mound Key and the Pine Island sites, (near Charlotte Harbor) there was a cultural exchange between Cuba and the Charlotte Harbor area for seasonal fishing. Later it was the spanish/indian peoples. That took place even before the Spanish arrived. It's safe to accept that the Calusa were already familiar with the tactics and intent of the Spanish. My son is currently investigating a site that produced a Spanish Real coin from that period, a large number of musket balls of about .75 caliber, indian trade beads, etc. Moreover, we've been trying to logic out where the De Leon ships would have been able to land. That area of the coast is rife with shoals, shallow water. The recent hurricane moved a lot of sand to reveal many of the artifacts. The locals believe that he landed and battled on Gasparilla Island, just north of Charlotte Harbor...but who really knows.

I too have links to the French Belgium ancestors we even have a monument in the French corner of South Africa

The turk was killed. Garroted by Coronado himself before he returned to mexico. I do not remember where i read that. But after traveling from Gallop to Farmington NM and being from kansas. I thought if i made that journey and no gold i would be pissed! So when i read of the turks demise I kind of could see he had it coming.

Anne Hutchinson's grandson was the royal Governor of Massachusetts during the American Revolution

That must be when the war against Christmas was begun !

i'm trying to learn about the sociology behind these historical events and how rumors and allegations can effect and snowball into what might be considered a historical event.

My people were the Quakers. Puritans executed at least two Quakers at one point.

So many to watch

Been watching these videos. Born and raised in Massachusetts/RI. My ancestor is John Coggeshall. I know so many people with surnames mentioned!

Great video ignore the triggered people

People crying about Luthrens vs Calvanists it all started with Luther period so no protestants today if not for Martin Luther the Original from Germany not the Communist from America lol

Digging your stuff

Part 3 came up. Gotta start at the beginning

I just watched the entire story. Simply amazing. The only thing I wished for was more mentions of location. I eventually figured it out. Great story. On a par with Shackleton...and then some! Thanks. What's craziest is that he went back.

8:35 I can summarize, in one Biblical phrase, why the puritans refused to take oaths, : "Let your yes be yes and your no be no. " (In other words, don't swear on God; dint swear on anything. Only say yes or no.
