A Native American tribe in the United States of America and a First Nations band government in Canada whose name means "genuine (pure, original, real) man" is a definition of the Leni Lenape. The Leni Lenape also may be found referred to as Delaware people and as Lenape. Their historical territory ranges from New Jersey and Pennsylvania to Long Island and the lower Hudson Valley even though today they tend to cluster in Oklahoma and Wisconsin in the United States and in Ontario in Canada.
