Canarsee. Formerly one of the leading 

 tribes on Long Island, N. Y., occupying 

 most of what is now Kings co. and the 

 shores of Jamaica bay, with their center 

 near Flatlands. According to Ruttenber 

 they were subject to or connected with 

 the Montauk; this, however, is doubt- 

 ful, as the Indians of the w. end of the 

 island appear to have been paying tribute, 

 at the time of the Dutch settlement of 

 New York, to the Iroquois. Their prin- 

 cipal village, of the same name, was prob- 

 ably at Canarsee, near Flatlands, in addi- 

 tion to which they had others at Maspeth 

 and apparently at Hempstead. They 

 are important chiefly from the fact that 

 the site of the city of Brooklyn was ob- 

 tained from them. Having asserted their 

 independence of the INIohawk, after the 

 appearance of the Dutch, they were at- 

 tacked by that tribe and nearly extermi- 

 nated. They also suffered considerably 

 during the war of the Long Island tribes 

 with the Dutch. The last one of them 

 died about 1800. (.i. m. c. t. )
