The menu — venison, rabbit, chowder, clams, and corncakes — was different from the traditional Thanksgiving meal.
But, then, that was the point.
With traditional drums and chanting serving as a soundtrack, members of the Wampanoag tribe gathered at midday Saturday for their fourth annual Thanksgiving celebration.
The feast was held at Mashpee’s Old Meeting House, a white church constructed in 1684 by European missionaries who ministered to the Wampanoag and is the oldest church on Cape Cod.
