at the Wompanoag Homesite, the people are dressed traditionally, but speak from a modern point-of-view in order to create a greater understanding. Here, each mound of dirt has three herring buried underground in order to fertilize the soil before planting.


This bark and stick created hut would house 10-12 people. Inside there were tables linind the perimeter that were covered in pelts. Henry got to hold tomohawks and other tools and was told that the tomohawks were used for 'conking animals over the head after they'd been shot with a bow and arrow, so they wouldn't suffer'. Yeah, I didn't have to talk with him about that. At. All.
