The Lenni Lenape people were Native Americans who lived once in regions of Delaware, New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. They were called Delaware Indians because they inhabited what is called the Delaware River Basin. Today, a large group of these Native Americans live in Oklahoma.

The Lenni Lenapes were original people of the mid-Atlantic area. The Lenapes were found in New Jersey, Delaware, New York and Pennsylvania. Most Lenape Indians were driven out of their homeland by the British to the Ohio area. The Americans eventually relocated them to Oklahoma, Canada, and Wisconsin, where the modern Delaware Indian tribes are located today. Other Lenape people joined the Nanticoke or Munsee Delawares. There are also some small Lenne Lenape communities remaining in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The total Lenape population is estimated around 16,000.
