“To Puritans, the epidemics were manifestly a sign of God’s providence, ‘in sweeping away great multitudes of the natives...that he might make room for us there.’ John Winthrop saw this ‘making room’ as a direct conveyance of property right: ‘God,’ he said, ‘hath hereby cleared our title to this place.’

“As Indian villages vanished, the land on which they had lived began to change. Freed from the annual burnings and soon to be subject to an entirely different agricultural regime, the land’s transformations were often so gradual as to be imperceptible. But a few changes were directly attributable to the depopulation caused by the epidemics. Fields which had still stood in grass when the Pilgrims arrived in 1620 were rapidly being reclaimed by forest by the time of the 1630 Puritan migrations to Massachusetts.”

—William Cronon, Changes in the Land (Hill and Wang 2003 [1983]), 90
