That depends if you mean the real, historic Pocahontas or the fictional, romanticised, sanitised version created by Disney, Hollywood and the tourist industry in the USA.
Pocahontas has been consistently misrepresented over the 395 years since her death. Perhaps the most appropriate symbol of that false representation is the Disney animated film of 1995.
A suitable symbol of the genuine Pocahontas would be the so-called "Mantle of Powhatan", now in the Ashmolean Museum in England. Although often described as a mantle or cloak, it was more probably a wall hanging of some religious significance and would have been an everyday part of Pocahontas' world. It is a simple tanned deer hide (buckskin) decorated with tiny white shells individually sewn in patterns representing a native, two small mammals and perhaps stars.

What tribe was Pocahantas from?
No one knows what tribe Pocahontas belonged to. Nearly every Powhatan tribe has claimed to be the tribe of Pocahontas at one point or another. Currently, two tribes, the Mattaponi and the Patawomeck claim to be the tribe of Pocahontas through her mother. Numerous Powhatan tribes are now extinct and can no longer claim the honor. When the existing Powhatan tribes get together to write about their common history (example: We're Still Here: Contemporary Virginia Indians Tell Their Stories (2000, 2001, 2006) they never state which tribe is the tribe of Pocahontas's mother because they do not agree on this. The True Story of Pocahontas (which a previous poster here used as a source) has numerous errors and its authors have serious credibility issues. It should not be used as an authoritative source. Pocahontas may have been Mattaponi, but we'll never know.
