European settlement began with the founding of a Dutch fur trading settlement, later called "Nieuw Amsterdam" (New Amsterdam), on the southern tip of Manhattan in 1614. Dutch colonial Director-General Peter Minuit purchased the island of Manhattan from the Lenape in 1626 for a value of 60 guilders (about $1000 in 2006); In 1664, the city was surrendered to the English and renamed "New York" after the English Duke of York and Albany.

New York grew in importance as a trading port while under British rule.
