Maybe you had better stick to presenting your own countries history Catfish because you don't know ours at all. There were no Indians present when the Pilgrims landed in Plymouth. No such thing as Plymouth Rock was ever mentioned until a couple hundred years later.

Well if you want your local history go to a local museum.
You can try the Essex in Salem or MFAs historic New England in Boston and find your history depicted by local people with natives present at the landing.
So before you get uppity about someones humerous take on your local "history" complain instead about your locals teaching your local mythology as your local history.
Also you want to get details right, a couple of hundred years is a couple of hundred years, it is not less than a hundred years or less than 200 years, and of course the great rock should be called Saints and Strangers Rock

The Pilgrims first real contact with the Indians was at what they call "First Encounter Beach" on Cape Cod where the Indians showered the Pilgrims with arrows before retreating back into the forest.

Any reason why you skip Standish and his armed party of grave robbers chasing the natives while on his first discovery?
I suppose that's not a "real" contact eh?
