Consider the fact that Indians lived and fought all over the country before Americans landed and many died and were buried or creamated. Also pioneers buried their dead anywhere they died. We cannot be sure that nobody died there.

Hey, I just did a quick search for New York City Architecture and found this web site.\nhttp://www.greatgridlock.net/NYC_Images/imgalpha.html\n\nWhen you go there scroll down and they have the building in alphabetical order with the dates that they were built in parentheses next to them.  Look for the dates in your time period.  There are a few.  You will get an idea of what buildings were around then.

The colonists kept pushing the natives westward while taking their land. The natives did not claim the land because they believed the land was for everybody to share. Unfortunately, the colonists won in the end because they had better weapons, and the natives knew this. :(

I'm guessing ... but I think you mean "Fort Nugent".\n\nThe fort is in/near Kingston Jamaica (see below).\n\nHarbour View was the site of this Fort which was first built by the Spanish slave agent in Jamaica, James Castillo, to guard his home against attack. The fort was later strengthened by the English Governor George Nugent, and named after him, to guard the eastern entrance of the city of Kingston. All that remains of Fort Nugent is the Martello Tower which was built probably in 1806. The Tower which was built at a cost of £12000 was a prototype of those built in Cape Martello in Corsica.

All Native american tribes had borders before the colonization by the puritans.\n      We had no fences but we all knew where our boundaries were, and if you chose to tresspass upon another tribes territory,you did so at your own peril.  The consequences for trespassing were usually forfeiture of your life.  Just thought you would all like to know...and they called US savages!

Just about all the major ones around the area, the state of Indiana seemed to be a drop off site for undesireables around the time of federally mandated forming reservations\n\nChippewa. Representatives of this tribe appear as parties to the Treaty of Greenville in 1795 and treaties made in 1817 and 1821 by which lands in Indiana were relinquished to the Whites. (See Minnesota.)\n\nDelaware. About 1770 the Delaware, most of whom were then living in Ohio, received permission from the Miami and Piankashaw to occupy that part of Indiana between the Ohio and White Rivers, where at one period they had six villages. In course of time, all moved west of the Mississippi to Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma. (See New Jersey.)\n\nErie. Erie tribal territory may once have extended into the northeastern part of the State, but this tribe played but little part in the known history of the region covered by it. (See Ohio.)\n\nIllinois. Representatives of this tribe appear as parties to the Treaty of Greenville in 1795, relinquishing land in Indiana to the Whites. (See Illinois.)\n\nIroquois. The earlier Indian occupants of Indiana were largely driven out by the Iroquois, particularly by the westernmost of the Iroquois tribes, the Seneca, yet they seem to have had few settlements in the State. (See New York.)\n\nKickapoo. When the Kickapoo were on Vermilion River, Ill., they undoubtedly occupied some of western Indiana for brief periods. (See Wisconsin.)\n\nMiami. The name is thought to be derived from the Chippewa word Omaumeg, signifying "people on the peninsula," but according to their own traditions, it came from the word for pigeon. The name used by themselves, as recorded and often used by early writers, is Twigbtwees, derived from the cry of a crane. Also called:\n\nNaked Indians, a common appellation used by the colonists, from a confusion of twanh, twanh, the cry of a crane, with tawa, "naked." \nPkíwi-léni, by the Shawnee, meaning "dust or ashes people." \nSänshkiá-a-rúnû), by the Wyandot, meaning "people dressing finely, or fantastically."\nTawatawas, meaning "naked." (See Naked Indians above.) \nWa-yä-tä-no'-ke, cited by Morgan (1851).

The settlers came to the new world and found Indians. They came in peace and had a feast together, then....BOOM. We screwed them for their land and ambushed them when they weren't expecting it. That's why the Native Indians of today don't pay tax, it's almost like an "I'm Sorry" and a thank you from the government. Our government discloses that part of Thanksgiving to make it seem all nice and pretty and full of thanks. But I don't see how you can say thanks when you stole it.  Happy Thanksgiving!!!

how about Native American's wating to build casinos but dealing with the red tape of zoning and town councils?  Of what about the conflict in RI about the Narragansett Indian Tribe's smoke shop on tribal land getting raided by the state police?

It was, as usual, a fight between the native peoples and the new inhabitants that were trying to take their land away.  \n\nIt was known as Yarmirr v Northern Territory.

At first, the Native Americans were probably curious.  While some tribes might have been prone to instigating trouble - many other tribes might have been open to the idea of a new group of individuals living in harmony beside them.\n\nWhat they found was group of people with very little respect for the land and its native people.  The English settlers (I'm refering to the Pilgrims up here in MA) weren't nice people and they weren't interested in cultivating meaninful relationships with natives unless it could provide them with useful knowledge to farm or hunt.  Once the Native Americans learned of the true nature of the colonizing English I'm sure they became weary of their presence.  Wars broke out - remember?  \n\nWere the English right to enter a territory that was already being lived in by others and trying to ungratefully utilize resources?  Would you want someone barging into your backyard and say "Hi I'm going to live here now - even though you've work hard your entire life for this little plot of land in the universe...oh and I'm gonna need some food, want to go grocery shopping for me?" \n\nI think you'd get rather ticked off.\n\n**\nKit4info:  You would like ME to learn MY American history?  If you are so ignorant to the treatment of the Native Americans by English settlers then you should not be responding to this question.  Research King Phillip’s War (1675-1676).  The cause of this war was due to what I said previously: mistreatment of the Natives.   Specifically: disrespect of Natives and continued expansion of the settlers.  The war involved the Wampanoag, Iroquois and Mohicans (western territories), Narragansett, Podunk,  and Nipmuck to name a few.  When war broke out most Natives sided with Phillip, a few who had converted to Christianity fought with the English, others were neutral.  Read this excerpt: \n\n “King Philip’s War was one of the bloodiest and most costly in the history of America. One in ten soldiers on both sides was injured or killed. It took many years for Plymouth and the other colonies to recover from damage to property\nThe outcome of King Philip’s War was devastating to the traditional way of life for Native People in New England. Hundreds of Natives who fought with Philip were sold into slavery abroad. Others, especially women and children, were forced to become servants locally. As the traditional base of existence changed due to the Colonists’ victory, the Wampanoag and other local Native communities had to adapt certain aspects of their culture in order to survive.”  \n\nDid I say that I think we should all leave because this land we live upon was stolen?  No – so what are you talking about “dinosaurs” for?  I am not “parroting” anything I am stating historical facts, my dear:  The Puritan settlers and their leaders were not nice people – not the innocents seeking religious freedom that you seem to think.  The majority of Native American tribes up here were NOT happy with what was happening around and did not like these intruders, although they tried to live beside them for several years, they quickly grew weary of their presence.  That was the question I read and that was what I answered.  No need to speak so condescendingly in order to gain a sense of authority because your argument is unfounded, illogical and worthless.  To deny any of these facts would be absurd; have you EVER taken an early American history class?  Someone was denied a school fieldtrip to Plimoth Plantation as a child and it shows.

Lenape and New Netherland: Prehistory:1613-1664\nMain article: History of New York City (prehistory-1664)\nPrehistory in the area began with the geological formation of the peculiar territory of what is today New York City. The area was long inhabited by the Lenape; Lenape in canoes met Giovanni da Verrazzano, the first European explorer to enter New York Harbor, in 1524. Giovanni da Verrazzano named this place New Angoulême in the honor of the French king Francis I. European settlement began with the founding of the Dutch fur trading settlement in Lower Manhattan in 1613 later called New Amsterdam (Nieuw Amsterdam) in the southern tip of Manhattan in 1624. Later in 1626, Peter Minuit established a long tradition of shrewd real estate investing when he purchased Manhattan Island and Staten Island from native people in exchange for trade goods. (Legend, now long disproved, has it that the island was purchased for $24 worth of glass beads.) Minuit's settlement was also a haven for Huguenots seeking religious liberty.\n\nIn 1640, Peter Stuyvesant was appointed governor, and ruled as a member of the Dutch Reformed Church. He curtailed the city's religious freedoms and closed all of the city's taverns. The colony was granted self-government in 1652. In 1664, the British conquered the area and renamed it New York. The Dutch regained it in August 1673, renaming the city "New Orange", before ceding New Netherland permanently to the English for what is now Surinam in November 1674.\n\nSee also: New Amsterdam \n\n[edit] British and Revolution: 1665-1783\nMain article: History of New York City (1665-1783)\nThis period began with the establishment of English rule over formerly Dutch New Amsterdam and New Netherland. As the newly renamed City of New York and surrounding areas developed, there was a growing independent feeling among some, but the area was decidedly split in its loyalties. The site of modern Greater New York City was the theatre of the New York Campaign, a series of major battles in the early American Revolutionary War. After early success in that campaign the city became the British political and military center of operations in North America for the remainder of the war. Nathan Hale was hanged in Manhattan after the Battle of Long Island. In addition, the British began to hold the majority of captured American prisoners of war aboard prison ships in Wallabout Bay, across the East River in Brooklyn. More Americans lost their lives from neglect aboard the prison ships than died in every battle of the war, combined. New York was greatly damaged twice by fires of dubious origin during the British occupation that followed the Battle of Brooklyn at the start of the American Revolutionary War. The occupation lasted until November 25, 1783. George Washington returned to the city that same November 25th as the last British forces left the United States. For about a century afterward the day was widely celebrated locally as "Evacuation Day". The Continental Congress met in New York City under the Articles of Confederation.\n\nCity of New York\nPopulation by year [1] \n1790 33,131 \n1800 60,515 \n1810 96,373 \n1820 123,706 \n1830 202,589 \n1840 312,710 \n1850 515,547 \n1860 813,669 \n1870 942,292 \n1880 1,206,299 \n1890 1,515,301 \n1900 3,437,202 \n1910 4,766,883 \n1920 5,620,048 \n1930 6,930,446 \n1940 7,454,995 \n1950 7,891,957 \n1960 7,781,984 \n1970 7,894,862 \n1980 7,071,639 \n1990 7,322,564 \n2000 8,008,278 \nIncluding the "outer\nboroughs" before the\n1898 consolidation \n1790 49,000 \n1800 79,200 \n1830 242,300 \n1850 696,100 \n1880 1,912,000 \n\n[edit] Federal and early American: 1784-1854\nMain article: History of New York City (1784-1854)\nNew York City became the first capital of the newly formed United States on September 13, 1788 under the U.S. Constitutional Convention.
