For this episode, we will explore the Legend of Danskammer, a point on New York’s Hudson River that is remembered for being an ancient ritual site of the Lenape. With help from Native American author and historian, Evan Pritchard, we will explore the Lenape worldview and learn about the rituals that horrified the colonial Dutch into believing they were devil worship. Hear tales of sacrifice and superstition and learn how this site has defined the various phases of the Hudson River.
