The Lenape are an Algonquian group of Native Americans from the Northeastern Woodlands. They are also called Delaware Indians.
Today they live in Canada, where they are enrolled in the 'Munsee-Delaware Nation 1, Moravian of the Thames First Nation, and the
Delaware of Six Nations, and the United States, where they are enrolled in three federally recognized tribes, the Delaware Nation
and the Delaware Tribe of Indians, both located in Oklahoma, and the Stockbridge-Munsee Community, located in Wisconsin.
Also note the existence of the Lenape in places where they are not legally recognized by the settler nation-state, such as the Lenape Nation
of Pennsylvania.
At the time of European contact in the 16th and 17th centuries, the Lenape lived in the area referred to as Lenapehoking, roughly
the area around and between the Delaware and lower Hudson Rivers. This encompassed what are now known as the U.S. state of
New Jersey; eastern Pennsylvania around the Delaware and Lehigh valleys; the north shore of Delaware; and much of southeastern
New York, particularly the lower Hudson Valley, Upper New York Bay, Staten Island and western Long Island. They spoke two related
languages in the Algonquian subfamily, collectively known as the Delaware languages: Unami and Munsee.
Lenape society is organized into clans determined by matrilineal descent. Territory was collective, but divided by clan. At the time of
European contact, the Lenape practiced large-scale agriculture, mostly companion planting, their primary crops being varieties of
the "Three Sisters." They also practiced hunting and the harvesting of seafood. They were primarily sedentary, moving to different
established campsites by season.
