No one knows who her mother actually is

Powhatan was the strong leader of the tribal country of Powhatan, which included more than 30 Algonquian-speaking tribes, and Pocahontas was his favorite daughter. Because of their language, the Powhatans, who are native to eastern Virginia, are often referred to as the Virginia Algonquians. She could have had greater privileges than her classmates because she was Chief Powhatan's daughter. She was nonetheless required to learn tasks carried out by women in the tribes, such as farming, cooking, gathering herbs, etc. The mother of Pocahontas is thought to be of low rank because she hasn't been identified or referenced frequently in any historical records. It's often accepted that her mother, Chief Powhatan's first wife, passed away while giving birth to Pocahontas. Little is known about Pocahontas's early years.


Except for the fact that they had the same vivacious, fun demeanor and nickname, Pocahontas' mother is not mentioned in any documents. The Chief Powhatan was said to have several wives, according to tradition. When one of the wives became pregnant, she would return to one of the 30 tribes from whence she originally hails and give birth to the chief's kid. She was expecting to nurse the child after giving birth. When the kid was old enough to be weaned, they were taken back to the Chief Powhatan to live with their half-siblings. After fulfilling her obligation, she was free to marry another man, engage in romantic activity, and have additional children without being pressured to return to the Chief Powhatan. But since Pocahontas' mother is never mentioned, a lot of historians think that she could have passed away after delivery. Alternatively, it's possible that she was still alive and just declined to see the kid she abandoned.
