La Relacion and of Plymouth Plantation Compare and Contrast

In the 1400s, 1500s, and 1600s explorers came from Europe to the New World. They came crosswise rough of the same chall(a)enges and accomplishments, but they also had contrastive experiences as well. In the story La Relacion by Alvar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca and Of Plymouth Plantation by William Bradford, you evoke catch a glimpse of these similarities and differences. Although the Pilgrims and Spaniards had differences they were to a greater extent than alike. While La Relacion encounter a lot of sympothy from the Natives, Of Plymouth Plantation encounters a customs we use now. Their arrival on the island they twain landed during the winter, but had different journies. by and by quaternion days at sea, Cabeza de Vacas ship was caught by a storm. Many of his men died or were unconscious. They werent equipped with good food or winter clothes, since they sailed during the cold winter season. unless a few men were left wing standing after their boat shattered, close to of them re gained consciousness when they came ashore.On the other hand, the Pilgrims landed safely, for that they thanked god. They too arrived during winter. Because of the weather, it took them a while to restore and reconstruct thither boat. It was hard and almost unworkable for them to explore the island by going up in the mountains so they had to do it by foot.They should have been been more wise and inclined(p) but they werent. The challenges they had getting to the island werent exactly the same but they both did come across certain obstacles. Thier first exposures to the Native Indians were really distinct.The Spaniards seeked help from the Indians, and the Pilgrims were distant, not interacting. The Spaniards persued nourishment and the Indians were utile towards them even after getting robbed by the Cabeza de Vacas men. The Indians treated them kindly. They fed them the best they likely could and everyday if possible. The Pilgrims at first were robbed by the indians.There re lationship was rocky in the beginning, they un upset killing each others men. Suprisingly they were approached by whiz of the Indian men than spoke broken english. Later on a few more started coming around, to the point where all the indians began getting along with the pilgrims. Even though both first view of the Indians as savages, they both got along with them. They had different experiences getting to know the Indians, but their relationship with them was the same. What they did with the indians or what they were made to do, were very diffferent from one some other.The Indians thought the Spaniards need to be sacraficed to their idol, so the Spaniards begged not to be killed and to be given another task. The Indians had a lot of sympothy toward Cabeza de Vaca and his men that or else they made them medicine-men.Even though they werent really into the idea, they larn the Indians techniques. After getting along the Pilgrims became more social with the Indians, but just in cas e anything happened they set regulations and rules amongst them so that there wouldnt be any crimes not punished. After setting these rules, they had their first small harvest-tide which we now call Thanksgiving.
