A nautical map of Zwaanendael and Godyn's Bay, a Dutch settlement founded by Samuel Godyn in 1629 in the modern U.S. state of Delaware. Godyn made his land claim to the Dutch West India Company under jurisdiction of the Charter of Freedoms and Exemptions. After a short time, the initial 32 inhabitants were murdered by local Nanticokes and Godyn sold his land back to the company.Map: Johannes Vingboons; Restoration: Lise Broer
