why is pocahontas saving the life of captain smith, depicted in the rotunda of the u.s. capitol? the u.s. capitol of course houses the legislative branch of government, and the rotunda is the country's grandest ceremonial room, which is evocative of a roman pantheon. here is pocahontas under the magnificent dome. we want to know why she is being afforded this respect, why does she merit position here, and the reason is that although historians today dispute and discount the idea that she saved captain smith's life, early in our history people believe that to be true, and this incident is painted in the rotunda of the u.s. capitol because in saving captain smith's life pocahontas was credited with saving the fort james colony. in saving the fort james colony she's credited with saving the birthplace of democracy, the place where the the first assemblies of elected representatives in what would become the united states of america. a very important motif is the tobacco leaf. it was not only the cash crop that allowed for james to become a viable colony and and rich england, it is al

building, as you know from a tour, had lots of nooks and crannies that one can go in and out of in the rotunda. in the case of congressmen in the capitol of the 1820's and 1830's at this time, there were three different places one could get a drink. right on the capitol grounds. a room aptly called the hole in the wall outside the senate and house chamber, and in the basement, a larger cafeteria where one got both food and spirits. host: how did that compare to the use of tobacco, chewing tobacco, cigars, cigarettes? dr. balcerski: it's good to connect the two. because when one thinks about vice in the capital, tobacco and alcohol were related. are related. whereas alcohol was illicit in the sense that one could not have open container on the floor of the house or senate, one could still consume alcohol in the capitol, although it would eventually be prohibited by a joint rule in both the house and senate. tobacco, on the other hand, was commonly consumed and you might say promoted. when a congressman walked on to the floor of the house or senate on either side of the door would be a snuffbox.
