Original Note:
The land was not “stolen,” as native Americans did not have a concept of land title and accordingly did not possess title to the land presently occupied by the United States. It would be more correct to refer to the land as having been conquered. https://americanindian.si.edu/nk360/manhattan/different-views-land/different-views-land.cshtml#:~:text=Native%20Americans%2C%20did%20not%20appreciate,rights%20to%20use%20the%20lands.
