Answer:

Gave the settlers food in exchange for metal tools.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Powhatans of Virginia were the Indian tribe that inhabited coastal Virginia at the time the English colonists arrived in the spring of 1607.

They lived in villages with houses and were about 14 thousand. When the English arrived, the Powhatans traded foodstuffs and furs in exchange for metal tools, with copper, glass beads and trinkets.
