The Name Game
The tribe this steed is based on resided in present-day New Jersey, and along the Delaware River in Pennsylvania, and the lower Hudson Valley region of New York.

Renamed the Delaware Indians by European settlers, their name means “common people.”

Lenape moved about seasonally, hunting small game, similar in culture to the Huron, the Iroquois and other hunter/gatherer cultures in the Northeast. They planted corn and beans on a major scale. The Lenape practiced the Green Corn Dance. They traded with Europeans once settlers began arriving on the North American continent.

Clan divisions were important to the Lenape and men were expected to marry only outside the clan. Today the Lenape have no federal recognition, though they have organizations in Colorado, Delaware, Kansas, New Jersey, Ohio, Oklahoma, Ontario Canada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.
