I am not answering in the correct response because I know that was not the question, just adding to this.
But here is the correct response I hope.
"The answer is, the Lanape native tribe, from the Dutch".
"What Watergate operative, later to be convicted, attended Fordham University graduating in 1952"?
History, "What is the structure's style name of the monument that is in the center of St Peter's Square, and who originally brought it to Rome. And no, it was not the church."
What actually happened was that the Europeans that wanted the site lavished some Native Americans who were just passing through with stuff and thought they'd purchased it from the owners.
Its like buying the Brooklyn bridge from some people who were just crossing the bridge THEN for the rest of history acting exactly like they'd bought it.
Anyhoo I'll let you have it cos for some reason I asked an arsehole question that everyone knows the wrong answer to.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
