THE DELAWARE INDIANS A BRIEF HISTORY
by Richard C. Adams
    Some Native American histories have relegated the Delaware Indians to the status of a minor east coast tribe, yet the Lenni Lenape, as they called themselves, were originally the most powerful Indian Tribe in the East, perhaps in the Americas.
  • from the introduction:
    It is of this Indian people that I venture now to offer a brief history covering the early legendary period, tracing their course from the time when as a mighty nation embracing many bands they owned and occupied that vast and magnificent territory extending along the Atlantic coast from Virginia to Massachusetts, and following them in their successive migrations and removals through western Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Missouri, Kansas, and finally dealing with them in their ultimate home within the Cherokee Nation in the Indian Territory. My effort is to produce a brief and accurate sketch of the history of my people, at the time when the last bond uniting them in their tribal relations is being severed by the action of the General Government in segregating their lands, allotting them in severalty, and thereby rendering them in all respects citizens of the United States.

Indians of Pennsylvania
and the Delaware Valley
The extensive drainage basin of the Delaware River is popularly called the "Delaware Valley." In different parts of my life I've lived in each of the three states surrounding it Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware. As a boy, I was always curious about the mysterious Indians who were nowhere to be seen, but whose language surrounded us in place names like Conestoga, Susquehanna, Passaic, and Hoboken, just to name a few. Even the name Manhattan comes from the language of the "Delaware" Indians. I am glad to have finally learned, much later in life, about the people who really "settled" this land and blazed its trails. Here in Pennsylvania, many early contacts were honorable, and Indians were well-treated. Unfortunately, much of that honor died with William Penn . The links below will shed light on the history and culture of this region's first inhabitants, and the activities of Indians who live here now.

Delaware
The Delawares—known to themselves as Lenape or Lenni Lenape (People Who Are the Standard)—spoke a language belonging to the eastern branch of the Algonquian or Algic stock. Until the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries their homeland was the drainage of the Delaware River and all of its tributaries, along with the lower portion of the Hudson River. At least three dialects of Delaware were spoken: northern or Munsee, southern or Unami, and a coastal one later called Unalachtigo (Those Who Left the Waves Behind). The geographical break between speakers of Munsee and Unami came at the Lehigh River below the Delaware River Water Gap. These dialects became the basis for later tribal identifications when European pressures forced the Delawares to consolidate into political entities. Aboriginally, the Delawares were divided into numerous groups identified with their own village, hunting territories, and river tributary. Their tribal identity was based in the traditional religion, particularly its rituals. According to traditional belief, Lenapehaking (Delaware land) was thought into being by a male Creator, who caused a giant turtle to rise from the primordial sea before a great cedar grew at the center of its shell to produce the first man and woman, who were the parents of all other life. The major Delaware ritual, the Gamwing (Big House Rite), defined the larger communities within Delaware society. The principal towns had special gabled longhouses where this ceremony was held every autumn to give thanks for the harvest of corn, beans, squash, sunflowers, and other crops and to pray for successful hunting. In all, the rite expressed the mutual dependence of men and women on each other, as expressed through a necessary joint reliance on crops and meat, summer and winter, and day and night. During the two weeks of the rite, the world was renewed and all within the region confirmed their personal ties with local spirits as each, in turn, sang his or her own song of power during night gatherings.

Food and Cuisine
The wealth of the Americas in 1492 was not in gold and silver, as Europeans thought, but in the variety of foods that grew in American soils. Pineapples, avocados, chocolate, chilies, tomatoes, and peanuts are all familiar American foods today. Corn, beans, squash, pumpkins, and potatoes are also important. Throughout the Americas, native people utilized an amazing variety of wild and domesticated plants. From upstate New York through the Ohio River valley, people gathered a wide variety of wild foods—fruits (grapes, plums, thorn apples, bearberries, cherries, blackberries, blueberries, elderberries, sumac berries) and nuts (acorns, butternuts, hickory nuts, walnuts, hazelnuts, and beechnuts). The Iroquois ceremonial cycle included a strawberry festival that celebrated the small, new wild strawberries that were a particular delicacy and a harbinger of spring. Their juice is still drunk at ceremonies in contemporary Iroquois communities. In the northeastern part of North America, native people domesticated sunflowers (

The Delaware were not migratory and appear to have occupied their homeland for thousands of years before the coming of the Europeans. During the next three centuries, white settlement forced the Delaware to relocate at least twenty times. By 1900 they had lived in: Delaware, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Ohio, Ontario, Michigan, Indiana, Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana, Texas, Wisconsin, Kansas, and Oklahoma. However, a government plan to move some of the Delaware to Minnesota was never carried out." - By Lee Sultzman

The Northern Maize (Corn) Area extended from southern New England and Maryland to the Lower Missouri River. These peoples practiced agriculture and were hunters and fishermen. Some tribes included the Iroquois [Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga and Seneca Indians]; the Huron, the Lenni-Lenape [Delaware]. The Penobscots lived in the far northeastern corner of the United States [Maine, Vermont, etc.]. The Ojibwa, Winnebago, Algonquin and Potawatomi Indians lived in the north central part of the U.S. in the Great Lakes Area [Superior, Erie] The Fox, Sauk and Menomini tribes also lived in this area. Tribes in this area had wild rice as a staple in their diets.

    Early Lenape society
    Although a different order may have prevailed during pre-colonial times, in Colonial times Lenape families (like many other Native American peoples) were organized into clans based on a common female ancestor. Phratries , which were groups of two or more clans, were identified by an animal sign. Three Lenape phratries emerge in the early historical record: Turtle, Turkey, and Wolf. These phratries were not political divisions, but rather 'flavors' of individuals common to all discrete bands of Lenape, which together made up the Lenape ' tribe ' although the very notion of 'tribe' is misleading, suggesting a uniformity that did not exist.

The "Original People" of the Schuylkill Watershed
The Schuylkill watershed was inhabited by the Lenni-Lenape people when the European explorers arrived. They were labeled the "Delaware" by the settlers, after the European name for the river alongside which they lived. They were a part of the Algonquin language group, and were under the political influence of the Iroquois Confederation. By and large they were a peaceful people. They were typical hunters and gatherers, although they also practiced farming, raising corn, beans and squash as staples of their diet. Lapowinsa Tishcohan These are two of the earliest and best portraits of native Americans, specifically, members of the Lenape tribe. They were painted by Gustavus Hesselius (b. 1682, Sweden, d. 1755, Philadelphia). These paintings were commissioned by John Penn, son of William Penn, founder of Philadelphia. It is thought that John Penn presented these portraits to the two chiefs in order to gain favor with them and secure the release of lands promised to his father in the Treaty of 1686.

A listing of all the Delaware resources we could find by searching the Web for you. (Under Construction) Delaware. A confederacy, formerly the most important of the Algonquian stock, occupying the entire basin of Delaware river in east Pennsylvania and south New York, together with most of New Jersey and Delaware. They called themselves Lenape or Leni-len pe, equivalent to 'real men,' or 'native, genuine men'; the English knew them as Delawares, from the name of their principal river; the French called them Loups, 'wolves,' a term probably applied originally to the Mahican on Hudson rivers, afterward extended to the Munsee division and to the whole group. To the more remote Algonquian tribes they, together with all their cognate tribes along the coast far up into New England, were known as Wapanaehki, 'easterners,' or 'eastern land people,' a term which appears also as a specific tribal designation in the form of Abnaki. By virtue of admitted priority of political rank and of occupying the central home territory, from which most of the cognate tribes had diverged, they were accorded by all the Algonquian tribes the respectful title of "grandfather," a recognition accorded by courtesy also by the Huron.

In the 17th cent., they lived in what is now New Jersey, Delaware, E Pennsylvania, and SE New York. They called themselves the Lenni-Lenape or the Lenape and were given the name Delaware by the settlers because they lived in the vicinity of the Delaware River. The Delaware evolved into a loose confederacy of three major divisions: the Munsee (wolf), the Unalachtigo (turkey), and the Unami (turtle). They occupied the territory from which most of the Algonquian tribes had originated and were accorded the respectful title of grandfather by these tribes. They traded with the Dutch early in the 17th cent., sold much of their land, and began moving inland to the Susquehanna valley. In 1682 they made a treaty of friendship with William Penn, which he did his best to honor. In 1720 the Delaware fell victim to Iroquois attack and were forced to move into what is now Ohio.
