Question

Fighting between Jamestown settlers and the Powhatan American Indian tribe during the 1600s lasted
A more than ten years.
B less than a year.
C one month.
D one day.

Answer 1

may be more than 10 years

Answer 2

The fight lasted more than ten years.

• Allegations that Powhatan had commanded the execution of the Lost Colonists had in reality sparked a holy war against the Indians.
• Perhaps this was done in an effort to demonstrate to the Jamestown settlers the extent of the mamanatowick's authority.
• The war began and the conflict resulted in the destruction of the Indian power.

The time frame of the wars can be noted as -

1. The first conflict - It broke out in the year 1609 and was resolved in the year 1614.
2. The second conflict - It took place between the years 1622 and 1626.
3. The third conflict - This was the shortest and lasted from years 1644 to 1646. The battles were put to an end resulting in a defined boundary.

• As a result, the conflict between the Powhatan American Indian tribe and the settlers of Jamestown in the 1600s lasted for more than 10 years.
