Pocahontas is a very famous figure from the era of European settlement in Virginia. However, her story is immensely shrouded in myth and legend. Did she really save John Smith's life? Who was the John Rolfe that she later married? And how did she help the colonists and her tribe find peace during her lifetime? Finally, we'll take a look at how she really looked - I reconstruct her in the past and modern-day using the only contemporary image made of her, the Virginia company engraving by Simon Van de Passe.
