John Smith
John Smith was an original settler and leader of the Jamestown colony. His early contact with the neighboring Powhatan tribe would lead to the success of the colony.
Early in the settlement of Jamestown, Smith was captured by the Powhatan. This capture would eventually produce the story of his capture and being saved by Pocahontas, the chiefs' daughter. During the second year of the colony, Smith became the president or governor of the colony. He used this power to negotiate, sometimes forcibly, with the Powhatan for corn which kept the colony safe from starvation. Smith was wounded by an explosion and was convinced to give up leadership and return to England.

Since the beginning of the Islamic era in 622, the diffusion of Muslim advancement in science, technology, or mathematics spread basically through trade and conquest. As Muslims conquered territories, they established trade routes and spread the Muslim's teachings to the conquered regions, although they allowed people to have their own belief systems.
So since medial times, Muslims shared their knowledge and inventions in the fields of astronomy, mathematics, algebra, cartography, geography, cosmology, alchemy, astronomy, opthalmology, chemistry, botany, agronomy, medicine, pharmacology, and the development of trade in the harsh conditions of the desert.
They were displaced by white American settlers again.
