What did Hudson trade with native Americans?

Today the tribes located in this area are known as the Delware. When the Dutch settled the area they saw the Native Americans living there as possible slaves. They treated them poorly and killed them as well as taking the land. The European view of land ownership was opposite to the Native Americans. The Native American view is that there can't be landownership and that they had a duty to be caretakers of the land. Essentially the two views kept the European settlers from treating the Delware with respect and this affected the relationship between the two groups, so very little trading was done. These were a peaceful farming community when the European settlers arrived with disease, guns, and stealing their lands. The first reservation was located in New Jersey by the 1700's. The idea presented in some history books that Native Americans were happy to see the European settlers or they were violent people is not the truth. The truth is that Native Americans were killed and lands stolen until they were all on reservations by the mid 1800's.
