“Most of their diet consisted of deer, rabbit and other wild animals. They also gathered berries and nuts.” “Many years ago they tried to enslave the powhatans.” “That didn’t work out because the Powhatans were not used to the diseases.” “In the Indian Culture, the women were in the field workers and the men were the hunters and the gathers.” “Another reason they couldn’t get the Powhatans enslaved is because if they ran away, they couldn’t find them because they knew the land and would escape.”
