King Philip remembered as a patriot and warrior
An Ithode Island Mt Hope shrine project honors King Philip of Pokanoket, Metacom, Massasoit’s son, famed for uniting Wampanoag tribes to resist English settlement. The plan, led by archaeologist Huffenreffer, preserves Mt Hope’s historic springs, throne site, and battle grounds, and frames Philip as a national hero in New England history.
