In 1630, Puritan colonists from England founded the city on the Shawmut Peninsula.[7] During the late eighteenth century Boston was the location of several major events during the American Revolution, including the Boston Massacre and the Boston Tea Party. Several early battles of the American Revolution, such as the Battle of Bunker Hill and the Siege of Boston, occurred within the city and surrounding areas. After American independence was attained Boston became a major shipping port and manufacturing center, and its rich history now attracts 16.3 million visitors annually.[8][7] The city was the site of several firsts, including America's first public school, Boston Latin School (1635),[9] and first college, Harvard College (1636), in neighboring Cambridge.
