They ran away from England in the early 17th century, landing in Plymouth in 1620. After signing the Mayflower Compact and establishing self-government, the Pilgrims struggled for years until more puritans came to the colony. This wave lasted from the 1630's to the 1640's, where less extremist puritans came over.]]> 2023-09-30 20:29:58 UTC https://padlet.com/jacobbecquey/bq07lthahqoj2trp/wish/2727121861 emmadaddona https://padlet.com/jacobbecquey/bq07lthahqoj2trp/wish/2727124120 Initially, Puritans and Native Americans both assisted each other through trade. The trade included not only tangible items, but religious beliefs as well. This included translations of the bible into Native American languages.]]> 2023-09-30 20:36:32 UTC https://padlet.com/jacobbecquey/bq07lthahqoj2trp/wish/2727124120 jacobbecquey https://padlet.com/jacobbecquey/bq07lthahqoj2trp/wish/2727128007 The puritans landed in Massachusetts, which had harsh winters. In the first winter, nearly half of the 102 puritan settlers perished from disease and/or famine. New England was cold and relatively infertile, shortening the food supply.]]> 2023-09-30 20:48:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jacobbecquey/bq07lthahqoj2trp/wish/2727128007 emmadaddona https://padlet.com/jacobbecquey/bq07lthahqoj2trp/wish/2727128880 The colonists from the Old World inadvertently brought numerous diseases with them on their journey. These illnesses were misinterpreted by colonists, who believed it was a sign from god indicating their right to take the land for themselves. As tensions between Puritans and Natives increased, they soon escalated into a war known as the King Philip's War in 1675. After 14 months of heavy casualties between the colonists and the Wampanoags and their allies, the war ended in 1676.]]> 2023-09-30 20:50:47 UTC https://padlet.com/jacobbecquey/bq07lthahqoj2trp/wish/2727128880 jacobbecquey https://padlet.com/jacobbecquey/bq07lthahqoj2trp/wish/2727131018 The Pilgrims landed in Plymouth Bay, establishing their first settlement there. Throughout the Great Puritan Migration, they established settlements like the Massachusetts Bay Colony, the New Haven Colony, and the Connecticut Colony.]]> 2023-09-30 20:57:09 UTC https://padlet.com/jacobbecquey/bq07lthahqoj2trp/wish/2727131018 emmadaddona https://padlet.com/jacobbecquey/bq07lthahqoj2trp/wish/2727131149 Thanksgiving was seen as a celebration of harvest, but in reality was a rather tense meal between the Wampanoags and the Pilgrims. Though the Native Americans were essential to the Puritans' survival, their relations were not always peaceful and would eventually turn violent in later years.]]> 2023-09-30 20:57:31 UTC https://padlet.com/jacobbecquey/bq07lthahqoj2trp/wish/2727131149 jacobbecquey https://padlet.com/jacobbecquey/bq07lthahqoj2trp/wish/2727135113 Puritan society was theocratic, meaning the Church held most of the power. This was introduced by John Winthrop's 'City upon a Hill' speech, which described this society as close to god and charitable. Every settlement was built around a church, and the network connecting the settlements was based on the churches. ]]> 2023-09-30 21:10:07 UTC https://padlet.com/jacobbecquey/bq07lthahqoj2trp/wish/2727135113 jacobbecquey https://padlet.com/jacobbecquey/bq07lthahqoj2trp/wish/2727135875 Patriarchy is a societal system in which men were dominant and held the most power.

Settlers would accuse women of witchcraft, offering no fair trial and often killing the accused. The victims were primarily women who had independent lifestyles or widows, and, in one case, a man who didn't accuse/defend his wife. These trials are a testament to the patriarchal society, as fears of differing views ended up killing at least 20 people in Salem alone.]]> 2023-09-30 21:26:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jacobbecquey/bq07lthahqoj2trp/wish/2727139797
