an "expanded interpretation of the Native American history of Philadelphia." The plan was "developed in consultations with the representatives of the indigenous nations of the Haudenosaunee, the Delaware Nation, Delaware Tribe of Indians, the Shawnee Tribe, and the Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma."
William Penn bought the land he turned into Pennsylvania, from not one, but three tribes due to the other 2 claiming the land was stolen from the initial tribe. So are we going to make it explicitly clear that the “Native Americans” were colonizers and savages?
You forgot cannibals. The only tribe of the east that weren't eaters of human flesh were the Cherokee. The rest didn't stop until the missionaries put a stop to it.
I don't know about all of them (haven't looked into it that much), but I do know that the Mohawks at a minimum practiced at least some cannibalism. And if one part of the Iroquois Confederacy is doing it, it's logical to assume that the other tribes were at least OK with it if not actively doing it themselves.

I've never heard of this before.

Interesting. Navajo hold that as a massive Taboo.
