Image Metacomet Hole 10.jpg frame right The 10th at Metacomet Metacomet Country Club is a private golf club in East Providence, Rhode Island in the United States. It was incorporated in 1901 by five Rhode Island Businessmen. The playing grounds were, at that time, in the Rumford section of East Providence. As for the name, Metacomet , it was the fashion at the turn of the century for golf clubs organizing in New England to select Native American names. Metacomet was a great Indian Chief of the Wampanoag people Wampanoag Tribe, a friend of the Pilgrim settlers of the 17th century who was later named King Philip by the English after he succeeded his father as leader of the Wampanoag people Wampanoag tribe. The course was originally designed by Leonard Byles, but, in 1924, Donald Ross golfer Donald Ross was hired to consult and re design the golf course which currently stands. The new layout was opened on August 7, 1926. Known as a challenging course with lots of character, it is widely considered to have among the best putting greens in New England.

Corbitant was sachem of the Pocasset tribe in present day North Tiverton, Rhode Island , ca. 1618 1630. In the summer of 1621, he was involved in a minor altercation with Plymouth colony involving the Patuxet refugee Squanto at present day Middleborough, Massachusetts . Corbitant had menaced both Squanto and his companion Hobomok for their close ties with the white strangers. Fearing for their lives, Hobomok was able to get away and escaped back to Plymouth, where he rallied the pilgrims under Myles Standish Miles Standish . Standish led ten men of Plymouth in arms to rescue Squanto from Corbitant, and assaulted the Wampanoag village at Nemasket, but by that time Corbitant had released Squanto and withdrawn from the area. Despite this incident, Corbitant was nominally obedient to Great Sachem Massasoit of the Pokanoket , and he was one of many Wampanoag sagamores who swore fealty to the English king some years later.

For the Algonquin diety Hobomok god Hobomok was a Native American who served as a guide, interpreter, and aide to the Pilgrims of Plymouth, Massachusetts . Like Tisquantom, better known as Squanto , Hobomok was essential to the survival and diplomatic success of the English in New England . Hobomok actually played a much larger role in relations with the English than Squanto played, although Squanto tends to get most of the attention in history books. Hobomok converted to Christianity and was beloved by the English until his death in 1642. He died from a European disease that he contracted from his close European friends. Hobomok was part of the Wampanoag people Wampanoag tribe, which, in the Algonquian languages Algonquian language, means People of the Dawn. Other Indians feared Hobomok so much that when they saw him in a battle, they would immediately leave. Hobomok was specifically asked by Massasoit the leader of the Wampanoag to help the Pilgrims. His memory lives on in several place names in modern day greater Plymouth, Massachusetts Plymouth and surrounding regions. His name may have been a pseudonym , as it means mischievous . Hobomok became the chief interpreter only because Massasoit mistrusted Squanto . Squanto was mistrusted and supposedly killed by the Wampanoags .
