Native Peoples who attended the 1621 event:: The only name we have is Massasoit. However, it is almost certain that Squanto, the Pilgrim’s translator, was present as well. Among other probable attendees are Hobbamock, Quadequina (Massasoit’s brother), and Tokamahamon (mentioned in Mourt’s Relation in June 1621, as a "special friend"). We do not know whether Samoset was still in the Plymouth area or had already returned to Maine.
