In search of the Indiana Lenape : a predictive summary of the archaeological impact of the Lenape living along the White River in Indiana from 1790-1821Yann, Jessica L. January 2009 (has links)
When they resided along the White River in Indiana from 1790 to 1821, the Lenape culture exhibited a blend of traits created by contact with European and other Native American groups. This has made observing the Lenape culture archaeologically problematic, especially the village of Wapicomekoke. In searching for this site, several research questions were addressed including who the Lenape were during this time period and what type of material culture would be associated with them. By compiling a brief history of the Lenape, the archaeological evidence associated with these encounters, and ethnohistoric data pertaining to the life of the Lenape at Wapicomekoke, it can be predicted that the archaeological site associated with this historic location would show evidence of log cabins, a large central longhouse, and of daily activities such as food preparation, dress, and trade goods use as well as Lenape specific items such as the “Delaware dolls.” / Theory and methods -- The Lenape history of contact -- Lenape archaeology -- Settlement patterns and material life -- The Lenape in Indiana, synthesizing the data -- Historic Lenape. / Department of Anthropology

The White River Indiana Delawares : an ethnohistoric synthesis, 1795-1867Ferguson, Roger James January 1972 (has links)
Segments of the Delaware Nation began migrating into the present state of Indiana about 1770 and in 1800 the majority of the tribe, including its principal chiefs, was established along the upper course of the west fork of bite River. The Delawares remained in Indiana until 1820 whereupon they were removed to Missouri Territory and thence to Kansas in 1830. The tribe ceded its Kansas land to the United States in 1867 and merged with the Cherokee Nation. The White River band was the core of the Delaware Nation throughout its Indiana, Missouri, and Kansas phases and this study is an ethnohistoric synthesis of the White River Indiana Delawares. The study focuses upon the tribe's continuum of dispersal, disunity, and cultural and social disintegration and, it analyzes the chieftaincy of William Anderson (1806-1830) with regard to his attempts to revitalize the Delawares into a viable tribe.The Delawares in 1800 mirrored the effects of over two centuries of contact with and resistance to Anglo-American settlement. The wars and the resultant depopulation and dispersal had created a disorganized and dejected society. The tribe's White River residence did however unite a major portion of its divergent groups and, it produced a capable chief in William Anderson.The decade preceding the Delawares' removal from Indiana to their settlement in Kansas in 1830 was a difficult period for the tribe and it was only through the efforts of William Anderson that the White River Delawares remained a cohesive band. This period was highlighted by Anderson's attempts to create a unified and viable nation free from white influences. His goals were revitalistic and predicated upon a past which had not existed for the tribe and they were thus only partially fulfilled. By emphasizing a hunting subsistence Anderson established his nation's right to exist west of the Mississippi River. His consolidation of the tribe's political structure gave the White River Delawares a strong native leadership during a crucial phase of their tribal existence. Anderson's death in 1830 created a leadership vacuum which was filled by the tribe's council and that body thereafter consistently refused to continue Anderson's goals and policies.The Delawares' thirty-seven year residence in Kansas was marked by continued cultural and social decay, tribal dispersal, disunity, and an almost complete alteration of its subsistence base from a hunting and simple-gardening economy to that of an agricultural existence. The tribe was powerless to halt these events and, despite its friendship and service to the United States, was incapable of stopping the ever encroaching tide of white settlers. It was apparent to theDelaware council in 1863 that another removal farther to the west was advisable. The decision was reached in July, 1866 and the resultant treaty and land cession terminated the entity known as the Delaware Nation.

The historical impact and current challenges of Christian ministry among the Aboriginal people of the Delaware Bay region / John Rob NorwoodNorwood, John Rob January 2015 (has links)
The purpose of this research is to assess and address issues of contextualization and
reconciliation as they pertain to Christianization and cultural preservation within the
three Nanticoke-Lenape American Indian tribal communities remaining in the states of
New Jersey and Delaware in the United States. The study seeks to provide insight into
the challenges for ministry within the socio-cultural and political context of the tribal
communities, particularly in regard to meaningful healing and reconciliation over the
lingering effects of colonization, in a manner that promotes integral, holistic,
contextualized Christian ministry. To achieve this, the study investigates the historical
backdrop of the tribal communities, including European contact, colonization, missions,
assimilation and cultural survival. Past and present tribal lifeways, beliefs, and practices
are evaluated through documented historical sources and contemporary accounts. The
research highlights the histories and current ministries of the principal historic tribal
congregations, and their role in the spiritual, cultural, and political survival of the tribes.
It also assesses possible approaches for effective, mission oriented, compassionate
engagement as a matter of faithful contextualization and social justice.
It should be noted that within this work the terms “American Indian,” “Native
American,” “Indigenous American,” “Aboriginal American,” and “First Nations
People” are all used to describe the indigenous people of America. These terms should
not be confused with the term “Indian American,” which describes an American citizen
whose ancestors can be traced to the nation of India on the continent of Asia. / PhD (Missiology), North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2015
