Jamestown
The U.S. elementary school view of pilgrims wasn't quite accurate. The early American settlers basically had no clue what they were getting into the moment they stepped on a boat to cross the Atlantic, and the years after their arrival were not a pleasant idyll of farming and housekeeping.Archaeologists and historians have long known about the "Starving Time" that occurred during the winter of 1609-10, as colonists recorded eating cats, rats, leather boots and yes, even the flesh of corpses. But until recently, there was no physical evidence that cannibalism had really taken place.
