The Pilgrims, often depicted in popular culture as wearing only black and white clothing, with large golden buckles on their shoes and hats and long white collars, is not historically accurate. The Pilgrims loved their colors as much as we do today, limiting their choices based on natural dyes. Contrary to traditional images, the Pilgrims did not wear tall, black hats with buckles on them, nor did they have buckles on their shoes. They did not restrict themselves to all-black attire and, instead, wore a wide variety of colors.
Pilgrims had no real dress restrictions, being simply Congregationalists (like Obama and many New Englanders) and wore multicolor outfits. They had no real dress restrictions, being simply Congregationalists (like Obama and lots of New Englanders). Pilgrim men did not wear black breeches, square white collar and cuffs, wide buckled belts, black steeple hats with a buckle, nor did Pilgrim women wear full-length clothing. Instead, they wore a linen shirt that reached to their knees as their undergarment, and a snug-fitting jacket called a doublet, which was buttoned.
The Puritans dressed in dark severe colors, while Pilgrims were quite different in their beliefs and lifestyles. The depiction of Pilgrims dressed only in black and white, wearing hats and shoes adorned with buckles, stems from the popular clothing in late 17th century England. Pilgrims did wear black conical hats called capotains, but they didn’t have buckles. Few items actually worn by the Pilgrims still exist, and everyday clothing such as shirts, breeches, stockings, underwear, and nightshirts were worn out and went out of fashion.

Greetings! My ancestor sailed on the Mayflower, his name was Edward Doty, and he was an indentured servant of Stephen Hopkins. He was not a separatist, just wanted to go to the New World, but didn’t have any money, so he became an indentured servant and worked for Hopkins for a few years to pay back the cost of the ride there.

No, they were religious fanatics with no tolerance to others and that s why they basically left to New World. In England they were going around demanding ppl NOT to celebrate Christmas. And Puritans were tolerated in Netherlands, but they hated that tolerance (because Puritans were radicals). Please don’t twist the history

Hey, I’m a student from a german university and I’ll give a presentation on monday about the pilgrims and the puritans in Plymouth and Massachusetts Bay Colony. Thanks for this short sweet article I can a bit relax between the mass of literature I had to reed! As I learned, the pilgrims (and later the puritans) had a very big impact with their religios traditions on present day US identities. 🙂
around 4.50 mark notice the Pilgrims Treatied with the Indians and promised to help defend them from their enemies – other warring tribes. This scenario is exactly the same in New Zealand history where the natives signed a Treaty and in exchange would defend the converted tribes from their enemies (other warring tribes). Today the warring tribes have started a revolution to again try to overthrow the Sovereign State, it’s crazy and in fact most of the world has no idea what’s happening here! All you need to do is watch a few Parliamentary discussions and debates and see the Maori radicals from their racist party are off the charts! Here’s just one example recently where they were supposed to take the Oath of Parliament to be part of the Crown which they have been for 170 years they are not separate neither did they occupy their land still don’t they were given ownership and sold it. Tribes own about 10% of NZ but there’s no development on it they interbred and now call themselves Native it’s not true we are all mixed here as you can tell these European eighth breed so called indigenous people are pretty white that’s why they are getting tats on their faces. The Treaty righteous Chiefs do not condone these rebels and never did. They are the reason NZ had a war in 1860’s. youtube.com/watch?v=S7HZtsN8ZsM
