Hello my name is Pocahontas. My real name wasn't Pocahontas. My actual name is Mataoka. Pocahontas was a childhood name that my father Powhatan named me. I was born sometime around 1695in Virginia. My mother died when i was little. Growing up without a mother wasn't hard. Sometime around 1607 the British settled in Jamestown Virginia. I watched them survive the harsh winters.
