:mEars: In this case the truth is certainly more interesting then anything I've heard that's been made up!
Pocahontas was only 12 years old when the colonists began to settle in the Chesapeake Bay area in 1607.
John Smith is the only person who has ever credited her with saving his life.
She herself never made any such claim.
Most tales told revolving around this episode in her life are greatly exaggerated, she was only 14 years old at the time this happened. :mEars:
