The Mayflower arrived at what is now Provincetown, at the tip of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, on November 11, 1620 (Julian calendar). They assembled a small boat and actually set foot on land on November 13th. In the boat, they made three expeditions over the next few weeks exploring the coastline. Having selected a site for their settlement, they sailed the Mayflower across to an abandoned Native American settlement called Patuxet, now Plymouth. The Mayflower dropped anchor there on December 16th. That is where the legendary Plymouth Rock can be found. [Source: Of Plymouth Plantation by William Bradford, Chapter X.]

What did the pilgrims sign in 1620?

Based on some of the disagreements while they were still on the ship that brought them to America, the leaders knew they needed some sort of document that would compel the settlers to work together as a team. The document was called the Mayflower Compact, and was signed before the pilgrims disembarked at the New World.


Why is the document the pilgrims signed one of the great documents?

Because, the Pilgrims were pretty much the first settlers who came to what was back then Jamestown. The document the Pilgrims signed was also one of the first signs of Democracy in North America (I'm assuming your talking about the "Mayflower Compact"). It showed that everyone had a say (at least, all of the men did) and needed to live up to commitments.
