"From my understanding *trying to keep my composure*,in the many words used in the Charlie Brown special of Thanksgiving:
"In the year 1621, the Pilgrims had their first Thanksgiving feast. They invited the great Indian Chief Massasoit, who brought ninety of his brave Indians and a great abundance of food. Governor William Bradford and Captian Miles Standish were honored guests"
"Pilgrims and Indians(Native Americans) broke bread together,by eating at that time,what abundance of food that was provided during that time.Maybe a turkey was easily available."
