Some pilgrims at some point shared a meal with Native Americans to my understanding (I'm not from there). |

That scene in Adams Family Values where Wednesday burns the pilgrim's village to the ground. |

Thats what we tell the kids, in reality it the holiday was invented centuries later as part of a national project. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myth_of_the_First_Thanksgiving |

When they were "discovering" America, was there anyone else there at the time? |

Columo never discovered what is nowadays the USA, he discovered Santo Domingo - Dominican Republic. They have a Colombo Statue with all the reasons.
The first people in the Amerikas are Mongols over the Bering Strait and people from Indonesia, later Wikingos, maybe also Chinese people, all long time before Colombo. |
