[PAR] [TLE] Peter Stuyvesant [SEP] Peter Stuyvesant (English pronunciation /ˈstaɪv.ə.sənt/; in Dutch also "Pieter" and "Petrus" Stuyvesant; (1610–1672) served as the last Dutch director-general of the colony of New Netherland from 1647 until it was ceded provisionally to the English in 1664, after which it was renamed New York.  He was a major figure in the early history of New York City and his name has been given to various landmarks and points of interest throughout the city (e.g. Stuyvesant High School, Stuyvesant Town–Peter Cooper Village, Stuyvesant Plaza, Bedford–Stuyvesant neighborhood, etc.). [PAR] [TLE] Kieft's War [SEP] Kieft's War, also known as the Wappinger War, was a conflict (1643–1645) between settlers of the nascent colony of New Netherland and the native Lenape population in what would later become the New York metropolitan area of the United States.  It is named for Director-General of New Netherland Willem Kieft, who had ordered an attack without approval of his advisory council and against the wishes of the colonists.  Dutch soldiers attacked Lenape camps and massacred the native inhabitants, which encouraged unification among the regional Algonquian tribes against the Dutch, and precipitated waves of attacks on both sides.  This was one of the earliest conflicts between Native Americans and European settlers.  Displeased with Kieft, the Dutch West India Company recalled him and he died while returning to the Netherlands.  Peter Stuyvesant succeeded him in New Netherland.  Because of the continuing threat by the Algonquians, numerous Dutch settlers returned to the Netherlands, and growth of the colony slowed.
