  7. Pocahontas (born Matoaka,later known as Rebecca Rolfe, c. 1595 – March 1617) was a Virginia Indian notable for her association with the colonial settlementat Jamestown, Virginia. Pocahontas was the daughter ofPowhatan, the paramount chief ofthe network Pocahontas of tributary tribal nations in the Tidewater region of Virginia. In a well-known historical anecdote, she is said to have saved the life of an Indian captive, Englishman John Smith, in 1607 by placing her head upon his own when her father raised his war club to execute him.

  10. Do you know the legend of the last of the Mohicans ? So tell the story

  11. The Last of the Mohicans: A Narrative of 1757 (1826) is a historical novel by James Fenimore Cooper. It is the second and the best known book of the Leatherstocking Talespentalogy. The Pathfinder, published 14 years later in 1840, is its sequel.[1] The story is set in 1757, during the French and Indian War (the Seven Years' War), when France and Great Britain battled for control of North America. During the war, the French depended on theirNative Americanallies to help fight the more numerous British colonists in the Northeast frontier areas.

  12. Cooper named a principal character Uncas, after a well-known Mohegansachem (a head chief) who had been an ally of the English in 17thcentury Connecticut. By using this name, Cooper seemed to confuse the Mohegan with the Mahican, a tribe historically based in New York along the Hudson River, closer to the central Mohawk Valley territory he also wrote about. The novel was one of the most popular in English in its time, although critics identified narrative flaws. Its length and formal prose style have limited its appeal to later readers, yet The Last of the Mohicans remains widely read in American literature courses. It has been adapted numerous times for films, TV movies and cartoons.
