Question

How did Squanto help the settlers?

Answer 1

Numerous ways

Explanation:

Squanto, as described by Bradford, was "a special instrument sent of God for their good beyond their expectation."

This was because Squanto helped the settlers to:

• Get used to the environment (as in, taught them how (and where) to farm crops, like corn.
• Served as an interpreter (between the local tribes and the pilgrims).
• Furthermore, he helped them to hunt animals, such as eels.

Due to the knowledge that Squanto passed onto them, they managed to sustain the colony, and reverted their misfortunes.
