Native Americans Welcome Queen to Jamestown


Jamestown, VA - Native Americans greeted Queen Elizabeth today and held a ceremony in her honor to commemorate the 400 year anniversary of the arrival of British settlers in Jamestown. The Jamestown colony, which led to the killing and displacement of indigenous Native Americans, was founded by Captain John Smith in 1607. Tribal dancers entertained the Queen and Chief Mahkah presented her with a Kachina doll and a Dream Catcher, much to her delight. "They are a lovely people and we do regret the horrors they suffered those 400 years ago," her Royal Majesty said. Following a tea and crumpets reception in Williamsburg, the Native Americans plan on shooting the Queen.
