In 1620 around 100 English men and women boarded the Mayflower. This boat landed on the shores of Cape Cod in Massachusetts and they anchored in Plymouth Rock. More than half of the settlers died but the ones who survived made peace treaties with the Native Americans and built a large economy. The settlers died the first winter from illness and disease.
