Manhattan ( ' the hill island,' or ' the is- 

 land of hills,' from manitlt 'island', -atin 

 'hill.'- Tooker). A tribe of the Wap- 

 pinger confederacy that occupied Man- 

 hattan id. and the e. bank of Hudson r. 

 and shore of Long Island sd., in West- 

 chester co., N. Y. Early Dutch writers 

 applied the name also to people of neigh- 

 boring Wappinger tribes. The Man- 

 hattan had their principal village, Nap- 

 peckamack, where Yonkers now stands, 

 and their territory stretched to Bronx r. 

 From their fort, Nipinichsen, on the_N. 

 bank of Spuyten Duyvil cr., they sallied 

 out in two canoes to attack Henclrik 

 Hudson when he returned down the river 

 in 1609. Maidiattan id. contained sev- 

 eral villages which they used only for 

 hunting and fishing. One was Sapohani- 

 kan. The island was bought from them 

 by Peter Minuit on May 6, 1626, for 60 

 guilders' worth of trinkets (Martha J. 

 Lamb, Hist. City of N. Y., i, 53, 1877). 

 Their other lands were disposed of by 

 later sales. See Ruttenber, Ind. Tribes

 that the local name at Lewes, Del., is 

 viulllnoHe. The word appears also as inan- 

 nynose. The wortl is derived from one of 

 the southern Algonquian dialects, Virgin- 

 ian or Delaware; probably the latter. 

 The derivation seems to be from the radi- 

 cal ?no?i-, 'to gather.' (a. f. c. )
