The Sachem of Pokanoket King Philip in New England History
The sachem of Pokanoket known as King Philip was the youngest son of Chief Massasoit. His Indian name was Metacom, his father aided English colonists, and he was named Philip by them. His war against settlers began about fifty years after Plymouth's landing, but he was killed at New Hope ending the conflict. The king title fit his English name better than the Indian title. Prejudices defy evidence, common sense, and reason.
