10 Things You Didn't Know About the Pilgrims

[@martini1179]

I literally just found your channel today when Diane Jennings reacted to your Thanksgiving video. I was wondering how many more months I'd have to wait for another one, and here it is.

1:42 In their defense, Plymouth barely had much food.

[@thornndog]

Great content as always. I wish more history youtube covered the colonial period in North America

[@TheRadioAteMyTV]

It really does kind of go James Town, Pilgrims, Roanoke, 1770 for the most part.

I absolutely love your videos and it’s great to see the effort you’ve put into animating them! I look forward to seeing more from this channel🙂👍

[@UncivilHistory]

Thank you so much! Another video coming soon!

[@charlesdeleo4608]

I like the fact that you mentioned the Puritans didn’t wear buckled hats, as those were a weird Victorian invention, kind of like horned Viking helmets.

[@jeffreygao3956]

What purpose would that even serve? Just hat decoration?

[@Dragons_Armory]

Hey man, just want to say I still am very interested to everything you produce. I look at this video's traffic and is quite shocked that it's only around 2.8k views. Despite the fact that it seemed the eldritch algorithm favored your earlier ones. Don't get discouraged, your stuff is both still interesting and entertaining, and there are always those whose interested in watching it. Keep it up,

[@jeffreygao3956]

Then let’s force the algorithm to see sense!

[@billquinn6224]

At Boston University I was taught that the pilgrims had a great thirst for alcohol and sex. From what I learned, was that at times work that had to be done in the colony had to be put off because almost every one was in the local drinking place.

[@Cheese-ng3kk]

[@JustinMBailey]

They were actually aliens and the first thanksgiving was haunted I know! 🦃

[@TheRadioAteMyTV]

Alien means, not from that area, so yes they were. As for haunted, considering the great dying wiped out 50-90 percent of the people in the area four years earlier, that's to be expected.

[@TheCreekGod]

Really out of pocket but you do the natives Americans so well in their design. They look so fine and handsome my personal favourite is Squanto, His design of being colonized by the looks of his English shirt but still keeping his native heritage in his bottom clothing and the accesories in his hair he has the most polite and innocent look of them all like a treat I even drew him a few times there design is so well, like a topping to your videos they look undeniably better than the English. I guess sometimes the English look decent.. But anyways keep up the great work I enjoy your videos I watch them pretty often.

[@jeffreygao3956]

I like to think of Tisquantum as a dirty backstabber.

[@rachdarastrix5251]

Most people today will tell you that back then the moment you turned 30 years old you would just magically drop dead, but back then people up to 90 years old were still fit handsome and killing shit in battle. Sure a lot of them died from poison marketed as medicine but today we have just as many sharletons better practiced at getting away with it by claiming they don't because time has changed and no one back then ate mostly deliberately poisoned food and drank mostly deliberately poisoned water.

[@robertortiz-wilson1588]

All of these are really good ones! The ending of number nine is odd, though. The tribes and nations absolutely understood the concept of massacring women and children in warfare. To claim otherwise is ridiculous.

[@jeffreygao3956]

Nope, tons of proof that "Christmas" is a made up holiday meant to absorb Saturnalia, which the populace absolutely refused to stop observing, for fear that the sun would not return. Do your own research on it.

[@supersaiyaninfinityunivers7193]

5:19 😂 he won’t say that anything

[@kraigthorne]

1:30 This is NOT true!!! They were trying to starve the Pilgrams out by scaring away the game when they tried to hunt and destroying fish traps thus making it impossible for them to fish. When they found out the Pilgrams had the only forge in over 400 miles and there were hundreds of pots and pans that needed to be repaired, they realized that they could make lots of money from them and they needed their aid to fight off neighboring tribes who were encroaching on their land.

[@themalacast]

5:02 You can't understand history if you think hunter-gatherers are relatively civilized and those from Europe were relatively "savage." But Howard Zinn would be proud!

[@jeffreygao3956]

I can't understand anyone who would prefer hunter-gatherer life.

[@rampantmutt9119]

@@jeffreygao3956 Hunter gatherers have historically had less disease, less authoritarianism, healthier diets, much less detrimental impacts on the natural environment, and an overall less laborious lifestyle compared to fully agricultural societies. However, the Wampanoag were both hunters-gatherers and farmers. The pilgrims would not have survived without being taught how to grow Indian corn.

[@themalacast]

@@rampantmutt9119 The lifetime homicide rate for hunter-gatherers, based on bones which were found to have man-inflicted wounds like tomahawk marks, is 15% on average. 1 in 6 of everyone you know would be killed at some point. Some tribes as high as 60(!). Consider what happened to the second president of Jamestown a few years before the pilgrims. The colony was starving and he was lured by the local Indians to trade for food. It gets grisly from there but I encourage you to wiki it. But yes hunter-gatherers are easy on the ecosystem: Indeed they or their children are often premature worm food!
