How the Native Americans described Europeans

[Calmone20]

They were appalled by their lack of hygeine:

The Native Americans that colonists encountered had different priorities in terms of hygiene. Like the Wampanoag, most Native Americans bathed openly in rivers and streams. And they also thought it was gross for Europeans to carry their own mucus around in handkerchiefs.

Good for them that they had a culture of bathing in natural waters and rivers and lakes. I wont argue European then were pretty dirty. They thought having a bath will give u cold. lol
