Mayflower Question

10. The English assumed that an indian was an indian was an indian, which wasn't true. They tried to kill aaall of the indians, when the indians weren't all together. Tribes probably had enough differences between them to make them as differential as the English and New England natives were to each other, but the English didn't look at it that way. If they took time to better understand the dynamics of the relationships between different tribes the English could definitely have used it to their own advantage.
