tailieunhanh - Four American Indians King Philip, Pontiac, Tecumseh, Osceola

Philip, ruler of the Wampanoags, was the only Indian in our country to whom the English colonists gave the title of king. Why no other Indian ever received this title I cannot tell, neither is it known how it happened to be given to Philip. The Wampanoags were a tribe of Indians whose homes were in what is now southeastern Massachusetts and in Rhode Island east of Narragansett Bay. A few of them, also, lived on the large islands farther south, Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard. | Four American Indians by 1 CHAPTER PAGE CHAPTER PAGE CHAPTER PAGE CHAPTER PAGE Four American Indians by Edson L.
