About This Item

Pocahontas in the Virginia woodlands

Pocahontas was an Indian princess, the daughter of Powhatan, the powerful chief of the Algonquian Indians in the Tidewater region of Virginia. She was born around 1595 to one of Powhatan's many wives. They named her Amonte and her secret clan name was Matoaca, though she is better known as Pocahontas, which means "Little Wanton," (playful, frolicsome little girl). She is so much more than a Disney cartoon!

Here are two excellent sources of information on our local Princess, Pocahontas:

From Henrico County

From The Association for the Preservation of Virginia Antiquities

Mrs. Archway and I spotted Matoaca in Lost Shaker of Salt, just where she was supposed to be. I say that because earlier in the day we found two TB's that haven't been logged since 2008. The logging procedure is just too complicated I guess... Anyway, Matoaca has traveled quite a few miles and has even been to the UK! I'm glad we had chance to cross paths. Thanks!

Needed to do a checkup on this cache and saw Matoaca had been lingering here for a while! In order to get her headed out to find Mickey again, we grabbed her and will move her on!

Spotted it as a friend put it into a cache. I don't know weather or not he will log it, but I will remind him to.
