Traditions of Giving Thanks
感恩的傳統

Thanksgiving traditions from around the world
by Lisa Holl Chang

According to American tradition, early settlers from England celebrated a harvest festival in 1621 with their American Indian neighbors, the Wampanoag. The settlers had much to celebrate that year: The Wampanoag had helped them to survive in an and unfamiliar harsh land. This historic thanksgiving celebration, however, wasn't the first of its kind. People around the world had been giving thanks for the harvest for ages.

North American Thanksgivings

While the Pilgrims are often credited with the first Thanksgiving, such celebrations were already a tradition among American Indians. In what is now Canada and the U.S., several tribes celebrated the Green Corn Festival.
