The Lenape history starts in 1121 and reports major
past events in the Lenape history.
There are 184 stanzas. The
first forty stanzas are Genesis.
The Bible can be studied to determine the meaning of the stanzas and
pictographs.
.
LENAPE LAND is the next 38 stanzas. A majority of these stanzas have modern
decipherment. This segment of
Lenape History covers the period from 1121 in Greenland to about 1380 near Lake
Traverse on the Red River.
.
The remainder of chapter 4 and all of Chapter 5 have not yet been deciphered, but the pictographs and deciphering of selected words have
enabled a general understanding of the history.

These statements based on the oldest American history (OAH) are supported by

Roman Catholic Erik Gnuppson, nicknamed Henricus, created the OAH about 1121.
.
Gnuppson visited Wynland (pronounced “Vinland”)
near Ulen in western Minnesota. He may have developed the first two chapters of the OAH at Wynland.
Gnuppson may have followed the Lenape traders down the Mississippi and then up a tributary to the Atlantic Coast.
There is a place called "Henricus" near Richmond, VA.
