About this listen

The Great Chief Powhatan reigned over a Paramount Chiefdom of perhaps 22,000 people. Then suddenly a group of strangers arrive and settle within Powhatan’s domain, they have desirable goods to trade, but are otherwise a difficult bunch to assimilate. This is the story of Pocahontas, John Smith and Jamestown, as can best be told from the point of view of Chief Powhatan the Great Werowances of Werowances, often overshadowed by his misunderstood daughter.
