Penn student co-creates AI-translator to spread awareness about Lenape language, history

A Penn student has co-created LenaGPT, an AI-powered platform designed to translate indigenous Lenape languages.

Engineering first-year Ashmit Dewan, along with West-Windsor Plainsboro High School North senior Shiva Tripurana, created the translator. Most existing translation websites, such as Google Translate, do not offer English to Lenape translations. Tripurana and Dewan sought to address this gap by developing a translation model for the languages.

“I started to realize that you could use computational linguistics to preserve language, information, and culture of the Lenape. And that’s kind of when we streamlined into LenaGPT,” Tripurana said.

LenaGPT allows users to pose questions and receive comprehensive answers, drawing on expertise and collaboration with the Lenape community. The platform facilitates learning and communication by providing translations of Lenape phrases and words.

“It’s really important that people understand that a language is a tremendous part of culture,” Tripurana added.

Tripurana and Dewan began developing the program approximately six months ago, meeting at least twice weekly to brainstorm and create a model akin to ChatGPT that offers both translation services and historical information.

Unlike most translation models that rely on coded algorithms scanning a set of words, LenaGPT employs a large, sophisticated language model, necessitating extensive information coding.

Tripurana is also the founder of LenaLingua, a non-profit created in 2020 that promotes the preservation and understanding of Lenape language and culture through computational linguistics.

According to Tripurana, LenaLingua can be “a catalyst for people who don’t know anything about Indigenous cultures to kind of start learning about indigenous cultures.”

New piece “Manahatta” is an act of resistance

No Comments on New piece “Manahatta” is an act of resistance

If You go You’ll find this in Battery Park in Lower Manhattan Dutch monument – a 1926 work by Dutch sculptor Hendrik van den Eijnde and one of the many structures in New York that perpetuate the myth of this island being sold. In all its glory, you can see Dutch colonial governor Peter Minuit “purchasing” the land with wampum beads worth a staggering $24 from a “Lenape native” whose name no one seems to know. This native wears a headdress typically worn by Plains natives hundreds of miles away. You don’t get the impression that van den Eijnde struggled to get the details right.

The only evidence of the “sale” of Manhattan is a small section in one letter written by a colonist in 1626. TThere are no mentions of pearls or jewelry here, nor a purchase certificate, just a quoted passage from the Dutch National Archives that reads: “Our people are in good spirits and live in peace. They bought the island of Manhattan from the savages for sixty guilders.”

The problem here is that the Lenape peoples, like most indigenous peoples, are inextricably linked to the land as stewards and do not share the concepts of money or land ownership like the Europeans. And so they were still strategically expelled from their ancestral homelands Grace shown to the Shouwunnok, also known as the Saltwater People (pronounced white people).

This displacement of the Lenape peoples was a major motivation for Mary Kathryn Nagle’s play “Manahatta“,” It tells the story of Jane Snake, a Lenape woman who moves from Oklahoma to Manahatta for a banking job during the 2008 financial crisis – reconnecting with her ancestral homeland. “When I return to our country, I feel a connection…

No Comments on Who was the first to live in Virginia?

Unearthing Virginia’s First Inhabitants

Archaeological evidence and historical records have long suggested that before European settlers made their mark, Virginia was home to a diverse group of Native American tribes. These indigenous peoples are considered the first to live in what is now known as Virginia, with a history that stretches back thousands of years.

Native American Tribes: Virginia’s Original Settlers

The Algonquian-speaking tribes, such as the Powhatan Confederacy, are some of the most well-documented groups that inhabited the coastal regions of Virginia. Inland, Siouan-speaking tribes like the Monacan and the Mannahoac, as well as Iroquoian-speaking groups such as the Nottoway, occupied the area. These tribes established complex societies, engaged in trade, and developed rich cultural traditions long before the arrival of English colonists in 1607.

Archaeological Discoveries Shed Light on Ancient Virginia

Recent archaeological findings have provided a window into the lives of these early Virginians. Excavations at sites like Werowocomoco, the Powhatan chiefdom’s central place, have unearthed artifacts that offer insights into their way of life, social organization, and the challenges they faced.

FAQ:

Q: Who were the first inhabitants of Virginia?
A: The first inhabitants of Virginia were various Native American tribes, including the Algonquian, Siouan, and Iroquoian-speaking peoples.

Q: What evidence do we have of these early Virginians?
A: Evidence includes archaeological findings such as tools, pottery, and settlement remains, as well as historical records from European explorers and settlers.

Definitions:

Archaeological evidence: Material remains of past human life and activities that are studied to understand historical cultures.
Native American tribes: Indigenous peoples of the Americas who lived in various cultural groups before European colonization.
Powhatan Confederacy: A group of Native American tribes during the 16th and 17th centuries that were part of a powerful chiefdom in what is now Virginia.
