(1). The True Story of Pocahontas
关于“印第安公主”波卡洪塔斯的真实历史
(2). Most likely none of that is true.
这些很有可能都不是真实的。
(3). Pocahontas was the daughter of Pamunkey Chief Wahunsenaca. He was leader of an alliance of about thirty Algonquian tribes and bands in Virginia when the British arrived in 1607.
波卡洪塔斯是帕芒基部落酋长Wahunsenaca的女儿。值1607年英国抵达之际，Wahunsenaca是弗吉尼亚30多个阿尔冈基人部族联盟的首领。
(4). This did not make her a "princess" however. Royalty was a European idea. Her family called her Matoaka, "flower between two streams." This likely referred to their home between Virginia’s Mattaponi and Pamunkey Rivers.
然而，这并不能使波卡洪塔斯成为公主，因为皇室是一种欧洲概念。她的家人称她为Matoaka，意思是两条溪流之间的花儿。这可能代表着他们家住在马特波尼河和帕芒基河之间。
(5). Tradition has said that her father also called her "Pocahontas." This has several possible meanings, including "wanton" to "mischievous." The name suggests she had a lively personality.
传说她的父亲也称她为Pocahontas，这个词有多种意思，包括“爱嬉戏的”和“调皮的。”这个名字表明她性格活泼。

(7). In 1613, the English took Pocahontas and imprisoned her because they thought it would help influence negotiations with her father. They kept her for a year at the settlement of Jamestown.
1613年，英国人把波卡洪塔斯囚禁了起来，因为他们认为这样能影响到跟她父亲的谈判。他们把她在詹姆斯顿殖民地关押了一年。
(8). At some point during her imprisonment, Pocahontas was declared a Christian and her British captors gave her a new name: Rebecca. The Mattaponi say at one point the English settlers permitted her sister to visit her. During that visit Pocahontas told her sister that she had been raped.
波卡洪塔斯在被囚的某个时期宣布皈依基督教，绑架她的英国人给她取了一个新的名字：丽贝卡。马特波尼族人称，英国殖民者有一次允许她的妹妹去探访她。在那次探访期间，波卡洪塔斯告诉她妹妹，她被强奸了。
(9). During her time at Jamestown, a British farmer named John Rolfe took an interest in her. The details of their relationship are not clear. In his writings, Rolfe said that he loved Pocahontas but also recognized that a marriage alliance between Britain and Virginia tribes would be helpful.
波卡洪塔斯在詹姆斯顿期间，一位名为约翰·罗尔夫（John Rolfe）的英国农民对她产生了兴趣。他们关系的细节并不清楚。罗尔夫在文字表述中写道，他爱着波卡洪塔斯，但是也坦诚英国和弗吉尼亚部落之间的婚姻联盟会有帮助。
(10). Rolfe married Pocahontas in 1614, and she gave birth to a son, Thomas. The Mattaponi say her father did not attend the wedding. However he gave her a necklace made of pearls harvested from Virginia’s coastal waters as a gift.
罗尔夫于1614年跟波卡洪塔斯结了婚，她还生下了一个孩子，取名为托马斯。马特波尼族人说，她的父亲没有参加婚礼。然而他送给了波卡洪塔斯一串产自弗吉尼亚沿海水域的珍珠做成的项链作为礼物。
(11). Pocahontas later traveled to England with Rolfe and Thomas to help bring attention to the new Virginia colony. She was presented to the Queen as Virginia’s first Christian. Historical records say she was well-received.
波卡洪塔斯随后跟罗尔夫和托马斯前往英格兰，帮助引发人们对新弗吉尼亚殖民地的关注。她被作为弗吉尼亚第一位基督徒介绍给女王。历史纪录称她受到了欢迎。
(12). However, Pocahontas became sick, and later died before she and Rolfe could return to Virginia. She was buried at St. George’s Church in the Kent town of Gravesend on March 21, 1617. A memorial statue for Pocahontas stands there today.
然而波卡洪塔斯病了，并且在她和罗尔夫能够返回弗吉尼亚之前去世。1617年3月21日，她被葬在肯特郡格莱乌赞得镇的圣乔治教堂。今天那里立起了一座波卡洪塔斯的纪念雕像。
(13). Famous for an unclear story
以一段不明故事而闻名
(14). Pocahontas is most famous for an event that likely never happened: Saving British explorer Captain John Smith from death by Chief Wahunsenaca in 1607.
波卡洪塔斯最著名的是一段可能从未发生过的事件：1607年拯救英国探险家约翰·史密斯上尉免遭Wahunsenaca酋长的毒手。
(15). Smith claimed that he had been taken prisoner by a group of fighters, who brought him before Chief Wahunsenaca. Smith said they were ready to kill him with a club. But, he wrote, Pocahontas threw herself down on top of the prisoner, which saved his life.
史密斯声称他曾被一群士兵俘虏，这些人将他带到Wahunsenaca酋长面前。史密斯说，他们准备将他乱棍打死。但是他写道，波卡洪塔斯趴到了她身上，救了他的命。
(16). Today, the Mattaponi say it could not have happened. They say such behavior would not have been consistent with Virginia Native culture or custom. Non-Native researchers also suspect the truth of this story, taking note that even in his own time, people saw Smith as a liar who had an inflated sense of his own importance.
今天，马特波尼族人表示这不可能发生。他们表示，这样的行为跟弗吉尼亚本土文化或习俗不一致。非本土的研究人员也怀疑这个故事的真相，提出即使是在他的时代，人们也将史密斯视为一个夸大自身重要性的骗子。
