Why did the English and Powhatan go to war in 1622?

By 1622, the paramount chief Powhatan and Pocahontas were dead, and the English had spread deep into Powhatan territory. The English forced the Powhatan Indians to move inland away from their traditional river valley homes. Native leaders under Opechancanough, Powhatan's half-brother and successor, had privately adopted a …

The R 2 value for the JKMRC prior art model (R 2 = 0.988) appears slightly better than the new model (R 2 = 0.984), but the differences are not statistically significant. The JKMRC prior art model, however, was fitted to each individual size, i.e. each size having its own …
