Henry Hudson initially encountered Native American tribes while navigating the Hudson. The tribes were not violent and traded furs to them. When, Hudson returned to Europe and the quality of the furs were observed several ships sailed back to America. Contact with the Europeans was detrimental to the native people, since they had no resistance to the disease the settlers brought.
