I would have to see more proof to say yes or no. Remember the current day feast of Ingathering used by some churches is really the feast of Sukkot which we also commonly call Thanksgiving and comes in the fall after the harvest. The early European settlers (Pilgrims, Puritans) were all very Christian Bible followers and traded corn with the Indians. I find it strange that the American Indians would have the word “succot”ash as part of their language. That would be like saying McPatrick is a Japanese name. I think anyone with a little common sense can see that “succot” appears more like “sukkot” than Algonquin which almost seems like the same origin as Obama. Just kidding of course. I’m through with that.

Blessings in your search for the TRUTH.
