Lenape

From NativeWiki

The Lenape or Lenni-Lenape (later named Delaware) were, in the 1600s, loosely organized bands of Native American peoples with shared cutltural and linguistic characteristics.

They practiced small-scale agriculture to augment a largely mobile hunter-gatherer society in the region around the Delaware River, the lower Hudson River, and western Long Island Sound.

The Lenape were the people living in New Jersey, the vicinity of New York Bay, and in the Delaware Valley at the time of the arrival of the Europeans in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and continue to live in this area today. Their Algonquian language also is known as either Lenape or Delaware.
