Geocache Description:

Native American Tribe series.

Armouchiquois

The Armouchiquois lived on the coast between what is now Cape Elizabeth, Maine and the Cape Cod area. The principal difference between the Armouchiquois and the tribes to the north of them was that the Armouchiquois tilled the soil and raised "maize, beans, pumpkins, squashes, tobacco and the ... Jerusalem artichoke." They carried on down into Massachusetts Bay and called into a harbour which, when the Pilgrims stepped ashore 15 years later, became known as Plymouth Harbour. According to Parkman, "Indian wigwams and garden patches lined the shore." By the time the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock in 1620, they were so weakened by a plague that they could muster little if any resistance to the settlement of these first Europeans to make a permanent home in New England.
