The northern part of what is now New Jersey was occupied by the Minisink or Munsee tribe; the central and south-east part was home to the Unami tribe and the south-west part was occupied by the Unalachtigo tribe.
Collectively these tribes are known as Leni Lenape or Delawares.
Each tribe was divided into small bands including the Acquackanonk, Hackensack, Munsee, Kechemeche, Nanticoke, Navesink, Pompton, Ramapough, Rumachenanck and Tappan.
Some historians count each of these bands as tribes in their own right, since they were entirely self-governing and made decisions without reference to any other parts of the Delaware group.
