The member of the Wampanoag tribe who helped the Pilgrims was Squanto, also known as Tisquantum. He played a crucial role in assisting the Pilgrims by teaching them how to cultivate corn, fish, and gather other resources essential for their survival. Squanto's knowledge of the local environment and his ability to communicate in English, due to his prior experiences with European explorers, were instrumental in establishing a successful relationship between the Wampanoag and the Pilgrims.
