American Toby Jug Museum 

Powhatan character jug produced in Indonesia by Applause of Woodland Hills, California, in 1996. Powhatan (1547-1618), whose proper name was Wahunsenacawh, was the leader of the Powhatan, an alliance of Algonquian-speaking Native Americans living in Tsenacommacah, in the Tidewater region of Virginia at the time when English settlers landed at Jamestown in 1607. Powhatan led the main political and military power facing the early colonists, and was probably the older brother of Opechancanough, who led attacks against the settlers in 1622 and 1644. He was the father of Matoaka, or Pocahontas. A peace pipe forms the handle of the jug.
