Question

The Powhatan tribes were the first Indians that the first European explorers found when they arrived in North Carolina which group did they belong too

Answer 1

Answer:

Algonquian

Explanation:

Soon after the first Europeans set foot in Northern America they encountered tribes of Native Americans. The tribes that were initially contacted were from the Algonquian group of Native Americans. The Europeans though used the term Powhatan for all of them, despite the Powhatan just being part of them. This group of Native Americans lived mostly in Northern Carolina and Virginia, and were people that were engaged in agriculture and had settled lifestyle. They were actually very helpful to the Europeans as they were the ones that helped them survive throughout he winters and thought them how to grow the native crops, but that lasted for short time and things escalated between the two unfortunately.
