Unamihoking
Lenapehoking () is widely translated as ' homelands of the Lenape', which in the 16th and 17th centuries, ranged along the Eastern seaboard from western Connecticut to Delaware, and encompassed the territory adjacent to the Delaware and lower Hudson river valleys, and the territory between them. Beginning in the 17th century, European colonists started settling on traditional Lenape lands. Combined with the concurrent introduction of Eurasian infectious diseases and encroachment from the colonists, the Lenape were severely depopulated and lost control over large portions of Lenapehoking. In the 18th and 19th centuries, the United States government forcibly removed the Lenape to the American Midwest, including the state of Oklahoma. Lenape nations today control lands within Oklahoma ( Delaware Nation and Delaware Tribe of Indians), Wisconsin ( Stockbridge-Munsee Community), and Ontario ( Munsee-Delaware Nation, Moravian of the Thames First Nation, and Delaware of Six Natio ...

Nora Thompson Dean
Nora Thompson Dean (July 3, 1907 – November 29, 1984), from Dewey, Oklahoma, was a member of the Delaware Tribe of Indians. As a Lenape traditionalist and one of the last fluent speakers of the southern Unami dialect of the Lenape language, she was an influential mentor to younger tribal members and is widely cited in scholarship on Lenape /luh-NAH-pay/ culture.

It would be sad to let it pass from memory by silence. The Unami (= /w’NAH-mee/ ‘downriver erson��) name of Nora Thompson Dean and the genealogy of her ancestors is now readily accessible on the Internet after someone in 2008 adapted the spelling ''Wenjipahkeehlehkwe''), intending it to be limited to one cultural event, but it spread widely on the In ...
