Peter Minuit is best known for his role in the purchase of Manhattan Island from the local Lenape tribe in 1626. He is often credited with the "discovery" of Manhattan for the Dutch, as he served as the director of the Dutch West India Company’s colony in New Netherland. This transaction, often described as the purchase of Manhattan for goods valued at 60 guilders, marked the beginning of significant European settlement on the island. Minuit's actions laid the groundwork for the establishment of New York City.
