Native American tribes

The first tribe is the Lenape or Delaware tribe who now live in Oklahoma. Their website says that they were one of the first tribes to come into contact with European settlers and they make the point that they showed kindness to the new arrivals but were then forced to give up their homelands and move across America, eventually forced into Indian Country – Oklahoma. There is mention of them being warriors – ready to fight but also that they were considered as peacemakers in disputes between tribes. In May 2009, they were granted Federal Recognition as an Indian Tribe.

This is the website of the Quileute tribe. This caught my eye as this tribe is featured in the Twilight novels. Having read the books I had assumed that this was a fictional tribe so I was surprised to find it. The tribe seem to have suffered less than some others as although they live on a reservation; it is the land they have always lived in, in a remote area of Washington state. They have built a successful tourist trade based on fishing, whale watching and hiking.
