The Cherokee weren't in Delaware, but in the southeast. You may be surprised to learn the Native Americans of Delaware were called Delaware nation. They were also known as "Lenape Indians" and were located also in New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania. Lenape meant "genuine people." There may have been around 9,000-12,000 prior to European arrival and were divided into 20 separate tribes with a network of villages each with sovereign hunting territories. There were several forts in Delaware territory and several where treaties were signed.
