The natives. Jamestown would have failed if it weren't for the kindness and ignorance of the Native Americans. Kindness in the sense that they taught the settlers how to hunt, grow food, and basically how to survive. Ignorance in the sense that they did not know that the settlers were going to take over their land and massacre their people.
