Ashuaquid, also known by the name of his tribe, was one of the first Virginia Indian leaders with whom the colonists had important dealings. On May 21, 1607, Christopher Newport set out from Jamestown with a small company of men to explore the upper reaches of the James River. Two days later they arrived at Arrohateck. Ashuaquid gave them a lavish entertainment, complete with ceremonious hospitality. When the expedition resumed its westward journey, five members of the tribe accompanied it as guides. The expedition stopped at the next village upriver, where Parahunt, one of Powhatan’s sons, was the king. There the explorers were again treated with great hospitality. When the expedition returned to Ashuaquid’s village on May 25, yet another feast took place.
