Conflict between Anglo-American settlers and Native Americans was a constant possibility in colonial America. Differences in culture were the usual causes for conflict, and New Jersey was no stranger to these conflicts. For example, the Massacre at Pavonia in 1643, was a brutal confrontation which happened as a result of the governor ordering a raid on a nearby native village. The village was wiped out, with even children falling victim. As a result, the tribes attacked the New Netherland settlement until a truce was declared in 1645.
